Boracay Lanterns, by Jim Alonzo

Boracay is a small island of the Philippines located approximately 315 km south of Manila. It is undoubtedly the most famous tropical island destination, famous for its sugary-soft, four kilometer-long white beaches. Aside from its beautiful beach and colorful lifestyle, the island is also surrounded by marine sanctuaries that offer untouched coral reef gardens and diverse sea life. These lanterns represent the colorful lifestyle of Boracay.

Jim Alonzo is a coffee-addicted Interior Designer, who loves photography, potato chips, and driving people mad. When Jim had his first Instamatic camera (Olympus) in college, he never knew that it is going to be one of his passions. He set up a small studio and took pictures of his sisters and when he saw the photos he had taken, he said to him “I think I’m loving this.” When the DSLR boomed into Dubai circuit, he bought his own DSLR, and from then on, he never stopped taking photographs. His favorite subjects to photograph are kids and landscapes. He believes that, maybe someday he will have the chance to meet the famous photographers around the world and have the chance to work with them.
