“Stay true to your vision even if you’re the only one who sees it.”
Seek the light
I seek the light in every dark situation, and wait for better things to come.
– Jojie Alcantara, on life and photography
Sunrise inspiration
“Actually, life is beautiful and I have time.”
Gloryland
There are hidden spots in paradise, of peace and tranquility, that you crave to visit again.
Above the skies
This year alone I rode in a chopper three times over Davao region, doing aerial photography in the traditional way.
Speck in the universe
We are but mere specks in the universe, our lifespan a mere second on the whole time lapse of history that keeps unfolding. So let’s make the most of our millisecond here on earth as nurturing species. Share the love and compassion. Create a ripple so that mankind will be remembered. ~ Jojie Alcantara (Sunrise seascape, Davao City)
James Ingram Live in Davao
Redstone Productions and Ovation Productions will also bring the music icon to Davao City on July 3 for its Greatest Hits Tour at the SMX Convention Center at SM Lanang Premier. One of his songs often sang in videokes around the country, Just Once, may be an apt title to the magical event that will happen in the city.
Challenge yourself
“Above all challenge yourself. You may well surprise yourself at what strengths you have, what you can accomplish.” – Cecile Springer
Perfectly worded
“If I waited for perfection… I would never write a word.” ~ Margaret Atwood
Live your life
“There is only one important point you must keep in your mind and let it be your guide. No matter what people call you, you are just who you are. Keep to this truth. You must ask yourself how is it you want to live your life. We live and we die, this is the truth that we can only face alone. No one can help us, not even the Buddha. So consider carefully, what prevents you from living the way you want to live your life?” ― Dalai Lama XIV
My aerial photo on Silkwinds cover
Silkwinds April 2014 Cover by Jojie Alcantara This is my cover photo of aerial Boracay waters in April 2014 issue of Silkwinds, the inflight magazine of SilkAir (Regional Wing of Singapore Airlines). I shot the fishermen and boat from a helicopter over Boracay. This is my second aerial photo on cover of an international airline magazine.
Dawn will come
“Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don’t give up.” ~ Anne Lamott

Best Toilet Humor in Yuyu Bar
The best and most creative toilet I’ve ever seen or experienced is in Yuyu Dessert Bar and Cafe, Tagum City. You can just stay here and sing along all day long. What wonderful toilet humor! (best viewed on HD) Oh, and this Cafe serves delicious food. 🙂
Listen to the rain
“It is raining and you can hear the pattern of the drops. You can hear it with your ears, or you can hear it out of that deep silence. If you hear it with complete silence of the mind, then the beauty of it is such that cannot be put into words or onto canvas, because that beauty is something beyond self-expression.” ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
Sunrise for Sylvia
“It is with hope that each sunrise I give her cheers her more today than yesterday, and that she will accept my messages of hope and love. This is for a very outrageous character who gives everyone around her a renewed zest for life just as she does.”
Living in the moment
“At the beach, life is different. Time doesn’t move hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun.” ~ Unknown Nina from Germany, a returning tourist to Davao City Punta Dumalag © Jojie Alcantara
Sunset dreams
“At some point in life, the world’s beauty becomes enough.” — Toni Morrison
