I brought my photo gear, strapped on a fanny pack, wore a dry fit T-shirt, cargo shorts, and a pair of crocs (Crocs on a...

I went along with a few friends to Eden Nature Park in Davao City. Since our schedule was a bit tight, we only had a quick look of the place. It was breathtaking, nonetheless. I took a few snapshots of the place and I must say, I will definitely go back there someday for real creative shots. We were dropped of by the cab at the Day Tour Center. We registered for the tour which took us to the major sites of Eden. We arrived at approximately...
