A very beautiful place just nearby Manila, a 1 hour and 45 minutes by bus from Cubao (Baliwag Transit). Highly recommended for those who want to begin mountaineering, and photographers who wants to practice landscape photography.
Budget friendly adventure site, as of June 2013 the bus fair is 117.00 from Cubao (one way) , Tricycle from San Miguel to Sitio Madlum 200.00 (one way, good for 4 person & approximately 45 minutes ride 50% rough road), a mandatory mountain guide for 300.00 (day trekking good for 6-10 person and approximately 2 hours hike to the summit).
Below are some of my shots intented for commercial micro stock images and some of it will be submitted to the LONELY PLANET.

(Camera settings used: ISO: 100, Aperture: f/22, Shutter: 1/5-1/50, White Balance: Sunny, File format: Medium RAW, Post Production: LR5, Remote cable release: NONE-i used 10 sec timer delay instead)
The most awaited view from the summit of Mt. Manalmon, according to our mountain guide that the place was originally called "Manlalamon"..
According to local people in Sitio Madlum that it would be best if you can visit the place during summer (or just any time of the year where the weather is fine) to see the crystal clear water of this river.
It's me with my 60D Canon DSLR w/ 17-40 L Lens and a super heavy BENRO versatile transformer tripod (wish to have a lighter tripod the next trip)
The Madlum cave
Thanks :-)
