Captured on Velvia 50 film with a Mamiya 7 camera, this panoramic image immortalizes a serene sunset in the quaint Philippine fishing town of Atimonan. Nestled on the eastern coast of Luzon, Atimonan boasts a rich maritime heritage that resonates through generations. The photograph paints a scene of timeless connection to the sea – two fishermen navigate their traditional raft, casting a shadow over the waters dyed in hues of red and pink by the descending sun. In the backdrop, distant mountains embrace the coastline, bridging the past and present of a town where my father-in-law's story began. Photo © copyright by Rich Voninski.
