Lilies in Lake Sebu on a full moon © Jojie Alcantara

“If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong.” ― Masaru Emoto, The Secret Life of Water

Three days of full moon worship in front of my cottage in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato. In the evenings, I captured the lilies shimmering in the dark. At sunrise, they wake your senses up with their bold colors in the murky waters.  I am in lily heaven.

Above photo was shot at around 7pm aided by a full moon and without a flash
