Palawan contains 43% of the total mangrove forests of the Philippines and Puerto Princesa is a city in the country where the total area of mangrove forests do not decline, but are increasing.
Mangroves play an important role in coastal ecosystems. They form important nurseries for many fish and shrimp species, but also for spiny lobster larvae. Besides, they produce good quality wood, basic ingredients for medicines, fruits and seafood products like oysters and several shells.

I love the perspective and colours. Also cool info on mangroves. I'd heard of them but I've never seen them or really knew what they were (precisely, I vaguely had an idea).
This is awesome Dennis. love how your eyes just flow out into the wide open but yet the center of focus is right up front. The color is great, it just comes together so nicely. I love it.
@gen- its my first time in palawan and i fell in love with the place
