Black and white conversion of my adventure at Quitinday Hills, #Albay. It should be a beautiful spot to photograph Mt. #Mayon but unfortunately it is covered by clouds. Sigh!
Mt. Mayon, Philipppines' perfect cone volcano and one of the most active. Her beauty can be seen any from anywhere in the province of Albay (Bicol region)

although now a park, the cagsaua church ruins is a grisly historical reminder of one of the more famous mayon volcano eruptions in which a church, that was used by its residents as a cover and protection from pyroclastic spewed by the volcano, was eventually engulfed by lahar from the volcano in 1814. it is alleged that hundreds of people were in the church during the time praying for protection. the church ruins, the church belfry and some columns, is located in the town of cagsaua , albay. the survivors of the town eventually resettled in the nearby town of daraga

Taken shortly before leaving Legaspi City. A quiet and cloudless morning at the municipality of Daraga. The cloud formations visible are high altitude clouds, probably kilometers away from the volcano. I have taken this shot before, but not on an early morning like this.

Mayon Volcano, also known as Mount Mayon, is an active volcano in the province of Albay, on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. Renowned as the "perfect cone" because of its almost symmetric conical shape, Mayon forms the northern boundary of Legazpi City, the largest city in terms of population in the Bicol Region.

It all began on a certain day when Dacoba was clearing the land which he was tilling. He cut a calpe tree, which is use as firewood. However, he was surprise because even many hours that passed by, the tree was still as fresh as it was before; its leaves did not wilt. He informed his landlord about it. That landlord was Don Arcilla of Buhi who then consulted the pastor of Buhi of what could be done with it. The friar pastor of Buhi summoned as sculptor named Bagacumba. Out of the tree, he was able to carve three statuettes-Nuestra Señora de Salvacion, San Antonio de Padua, and Nuestra Señora de Solidad—now in Brgy. Joroan of Tiwi, and in the poblacion and Brgy. Tambo both of Buhi, respectively.
The Joroan known in Albay, was separated from Buhi. So, the image of the Salvacion likewise separated from Buhi and no chance to become a part of Tiwi.
In 1805, a strong typhoon hit the area where a small simple shrine was built to shelter the image. So they moved the image temporarily to Tiwi until such time that the place reconstructed completely. But the devotion to the Virgin were established in Tiwi. Conflict rises between to devotees, one Joroan and the other was the Tiwi devotees.
In 1918, an assembly was conducted with the participation of the members. They agreed to turn Joroan into another parish and built a new shrine to a sixteen-hectare land. When the it was completely constructed in September 15, 1919. The image was finally returned to Joroan on November in the same year.
[edit] Description
Our Lady of Salvacion describes as the Virgin carrying Jesus in Her left arm, the serpent's head is crushed under the feet, and Her right hand hold a man, an angel in kneeling position. The Child Jesus holds in his right hand a burning heart.
[edit] Apparitions and Miracles
When the Muslims attacked Joroans and planned to burn their houses, but each time, the torch would not ignite.
On the second attempt, they chanced upon Hermana Tiray, the holder of the image, and took her captive back to Mindanao. Because she was tired she went into a deep sleep, and when she came to, she saw a white deer and followed it, until she lost track of it. she found herself back in Albay. She spent throughout her life serving the Virgin.
Three devotees from the Region of Catanduanes went on a pilgrimage to Joroan, they bring along with them a set of candles in their boat. Upon reaching the shore, two of them decided to detour to Buhi and light candles for St. Anthony, while the other was left to guard the boat. A woman carrying a child approached the man and asked for a candle to light her way. The man refused because the candle was not his. The lady insisted and promised that she would return the candle in the morning if he would come to her house uphill. The man get her address and gave her one. She lighted the candle and walked away. On the next day, the man went to the address were the lady gave him but to his surprised he saw the candle on the on the foot of the image unlighted and unused.
Our Lady of Salvation was remarked from saving the town of Albay from the Muslim pirates. After that, Hermana Mayor, Doña Clara de Vera set to construct a new shrine. Don Manuel Casa, a Manileño and an architect volunteered for his service. But he is suffering from paralyzing disease. When he came to the cite he saw that a church was his task. As he started to work, he began feeling much better and when he was done with it, he was completely cured.
[edit] Veneration
Every year, during the month of August until September, devotees from all over the Bicol Region, visit the shrine. The last Saturday of August, is traditionally held as a special day of pilgrimage. During the evening of the last Friday, devotees in buses and jeepneys from other provinces of Bicol are coming. In the morning, they walk in procession from the St. Lawrence Parish Church to Shrine.

Busay Falls, located within the river that snakes through Mt. Mayon's northeast slopes. A series of waterfalls and plunge pools drops from to about 250 meters. Its not a punishing walk -- as punishing as the Mt. Pinatubo trek just a week earlier, its leisurely, and the water is cool and always is tempting to swim.
This is part of the Busay series of waterfalls in Malilipot, Albay. Malilipot is about an hour or two, drive to the east of Legaspi City.

Late afternoon on our last day, the shy Mayon Volcano finally relented and gave us a peek of her tip. She bared her nipple for about fifteen minutes then was completely enveloped by clouds once again. This view of active Mayon, which has the most perfect cone of all volcanos, is from Lignon Hill in Legazpi.
