Philippine Travel Blog - The Travelers Guide to Philippine Destinations

One of the exciting part of travelling is that sometimes you’d encounter odd people, places, things, or situations. Mine was during my recent trip this year to Mount Siniloan at Famy. I think it’s in the borderline of Quezon Province and Laguna.

The place is a regular camp site beside a river with several waterfalls along its line. One of the amazing waterfalls there was called the Batya-Batya Falls because of the several cascading basins which resembles the batya.

I took hundreds of pictures on that camping trip and one of them showed this:

I only noticed it when I was already uploading pictures to my online photo gallery.

The “thing” stood at about 3 feet when compared to the sizes of the people within the picture. My digital camera’s flash was turned off and there was no sunlight because it was raining a bit during that time.

The human resemblance of the bright object is so uncanny that my first impression it was out of the natural. I have several other shots of the same area but only this one had it.

Until this day, I still believe that it was some sort of an engkanto or a fairy.
