Nature Photography


NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY
 
God is the best creator. He create everything that we been seen. The photographic styles like landscapes, seascapes, underwater, underground, wildlife and flora; close-ups of flowers and insects; and representations of climates, weather, and seasons are examples of  nature photography. Nature is one of the best subjects in photography it’s because it describes the wonderful places that we have. Although we cannot see it in personality but by means of photos we might discover the beauties of different places worldwide. A nature photograph must have integrity because it is a true presentation of the natural world and people recognizes it.
But some photographer has changed the essence of the image, and it is no longer a true record of nature. The basic premise is that editing should not change the fundamental structure of a nature photograph. In adding, removing, or moving elements within the image it is very important the uniqueness and originality of the image so that the viewer might seen its beauties. Many nature photographers are often experts in field of biology, zoology, botany, geography. The importance of the nature photography is to educate, they can give knowledge by means of pictures that has not been seen by other people. For example is the Palawan Underground river, this Eco-tourism spot is really beautiful even though I’ve see this spot personally but the pictures that are taken by the photographers and tourist is almost describe the place. This can also promote the tourism in a particular country. In the Philippines, there are so many beautiful places that most of the foreigners’ visits. We are rich in natural resources and these can be a good foundation in promoting tourism in our country. By means of photography we can help to promote and advertise to the people the tourist spot that we have.
The Puerto Princesa Underground River is located about 50 km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. It features a limestone karst mountain landscape with an 8.2 km. navigable underground river. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea. It includes major formations of stalactites and stalagmites, and several large chambers. The lower portion of the river is subject to tidal influences. The underground river is reputed to be the world's longest. At the mouth of the cave, a clear lagoon is framed by ancient trees growing right to the water's edge. Monkeys, large monitor lizards, and squirrels find their niche on the beach near the cave.
