From the website of the province of Bohol:
"The Chocolate Hills are probably Bohol's most famous tourist attraction.
They look like giant mole hills, or as some say, women's breasts, and
remind us of the hills in a small child's drawing. Most people... can hardly believe that these hills are
not a man-made artifact... this idea is quickly abandoned, as the
effort would surely surpass the construction of the pyramids in Egypt.
The chocolate hills consist of are no less than 1268 hills (some claim
this to be the exact number). They are very uniform in shape and mostly
between 30 and 50 meters high. They are covered with grass, which, at
the end of the dry season, turns chocolate brown. From this color, the
hills derive their name. At other times, the hills are green, and the
association may be a bit difficult to make."
You gotta love the similes.
It was mid-morning and summer in the Central Visayas. The sun was intent on burning every square inch of skin in sight. The principle behind these photos (Nokia C3-00, for the nth time) was point and shoot. No time to measure the angles, calibrate the framing, all that photography shiz. And as always, before uploading, no editing, no Adobe Photoshop - just the original pics.
