Somersault on the Beach, by Ryszard Wierzbicki

Palawan is one of the most known of beautiful Island of Philippines. In November 2016 I had a chance to explore this area and being recommended an undiscovered Alimanguan village. Victoria Beach House was my home base from where I was starting my explorations with my camera every morning. On the Beach in front of the resort met many locals and kids playing with water and sand. One of such fun session I registered with my lens.
