Procrastinating is the art of doing nothing. WHAT? an ART? Well, let me qualify a bit. It is true that we are always told not to delay things or don't put off tomorrow what we can do today. But here in Caragman Cove, life is very simple if not slow. No one seems to be in a hurry because they have one of the most precious thing in the world - time. People here seem to have everything they need. A mini-forest to fetch for crops and a sea to haunt for their fish. There is no electricity here but folks here never seem to mind for they have the beach for their recreation. And if you happen to visit this place, you could not help yourself but also to take things easy. Just walk along the shores of the fine sand beach, taking photos of their amazing landscape, inter-acting with people and just basically do nothing. In Caragman Cove, procrastinating is an art.
Caragaman Cove is located in Bagac, Bataan and just a few minutes boat ride from Looc Cove and Paitan Cove. To go there, check my previous entry on Paitan Cove.

I would,,--if i will be in such a lovely and beautiful place...i would just stay roam and engross my thoughts with the beauty of creation---
ReplyDeleteIt must be sooo wonderful there,, hmmn---look soooo peaceful.
Great post!
I love the serenity of the place. It's hard not to procrastinate when you're in a wonderful place like this. Ah, life is definitely good.
ReplyDeletelooks like paradise on earth. the top photo is beautifully composed. the last photo is tranquil---i could almost hear the gentle sounds of waves.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photos here. Like it. Wish I could be there to relax
ReplyDeletebilib ako sa iyo bro sa pagpili ng destinations! the first photo is beautiful! pag babalik ka dito pasabit ha :)
ReplyDeleteWow...that is beautiful... and you managed to capture all this beauty very well...
ReplyDeleteI like how you played with the DOF.
kahit ako di na maiiwasan tanggalin ko ang paa ko sa pagkakatapak sa lugar nyan..paraiso!
ReplyDeletep.s
pards anu ba maganda camera ngayon...ok lang ba yung bago ngayong nikkon d90?
sa itsura pa lang ng cove, sa kalmadong tubig at sa parang pribadong lugar, siguradong mapoprocrastinate ka talaga.
ReplyDeletepanalo din ang weekend natin. sulit na sulit. salamat. salamat.
is this place residential or private? parang mahirap atang marating. you still have to rent a boat. although that's part of the beuty of it. kung madaling hanapin sigurado super dami ng tao and it could spoil the peace of the place.....
ReplyDelete@ mys lyke mee - it was peaceful indeed and a nice place just to doze-off.
ReplyDelete@ dyosa - life is good and thanks to places like this, life is much simpler.
ReplyDelete@ luna miranda - thanks. the waves are gentle indeed because there are no rain or heavy wind that day.
ReplyDelete@ borneo falcon - thanks. so relaxing indeed.
ReplyDelete@ allan barredo - cge bro, sama natin si dom tapos libutin natin uli yung place.
ReplyDelete@ sidney - thanks sidney. the place really is beautiful in a rural way.
ReplyDeleteby the way, what is DOF?
@ ever - hala. wag naman paa kasi di ka na makakalakad nyan. pero pwede ka naman gumulong na lang sa buhanginan.
ReplyDeleteparekoy, canon user ako eversince eh. pero wala naman ako masasabi bad against nikkon. ok siguro yun.
@ the dong - ayos nga bro trip natin. nueva ecija-nueva vizcaya-aurora loop. sa uulitin.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful spot on earth!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could visit :)
@ pusang gala - most of the coves here are privately owned but they do welcome wanderers in the place.
ReplyDeletepagtingin ko pa lang sa mga photos, relax na relax ang feeling ko. na miss ko na ang mga ganyang lugar na peaceful kahit walang electricity masaya!
ReplyDeleteuy, hindi na siya busy.
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty there that I don't think one could call that procrastinating. That's living. I loved especially the photo of the stick or branch up close with the faded bay and beach behind.
ReplyDeletea perfect place of serenity amidst the chaos of city life..good job!i'm gonna include this in my list of places to visit.
ReplyDeleteanyway,i appreciate your comment!that's so nice of you,thank you.we hope God will give us soon..
looks like a great place to procrastinate...huh? LOL!
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of the rocky shoreline... sooo pretty. Love the contrast of textures.
oh i can procastinate for days on end oman. with a place as beautiful as this, who cares if the days pass me by?
ReplyDeleteLS: You have captured it so simply. What a neat place, I have a hard time thinking that there is no electricity. That certainly changes everythig. I think rather than calling it Procatination; I would have called it Relaxation. Thanks for this neat trip, friend.
ReplyDeleteI think my son has perfecte3d the art of procrastination. I don't know where he got it from but it's definitely not from me. hehe.
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is the one I love the most. The focus is on the brach and the background seemed to have stepped aside so we can concentrate on the beauty of the tree (shrub?) branches. Lovely!
I can't help not to imagine how the nights are in that island. If there are no electricity, then it would be very dark and the noise of the waves and nucturnal insects are all around. Hmmm... for a city person like me.. it's going to be scary. hehe.. but definitely something to get used to. In time they will be the only thing that will lull me to sleep.
thanks.
I'm guilty of procrastinating too! Let's not mention it. ;)
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's awesome to just sit back and do nothing.
I think I may have found my place to call home since I am the queen of procrastination--just ask my husband :)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully presented again, thanks for the tour.
Me quedo con la última es una maravilla de playa.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo
I would love to go there. How beautiful. Oh, and I have mastered the ART of procrastination! :)
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of that "thorny plant".
ReplyDeleteIm always fascinated by either clouds, or a zoomed subject.
nice.
I do not know what I should say ... I want to be there.
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots. Those angles and perspectives are just amazing. They make me feel as if I'm there.. if only.
ReplyDeleteganda ng macro shot! galeng!
ReplyDeletenapadaan!
@ marie - the place is really beautiful, so virginal and untouched by civilization.
ReplyDelete@ redlan - marami pa talagang lugar sa pilipinas na ganito, di pa lang talaga nadidiscover. pero mainam din na di madiscover para mapreserve ang ganda.
ReplyDelete@ leora - thanks. i try to experiment on using zoom lens on close subjects. i like the effect too.
ReplyDelete@ aquamarine - its really different from the busy urban life, it is more laid-back there and no one seems to be in a rush.
ReplyDelete@ lois grebowski - if you need to relax or procrastinate, then this is the place for it lol. thanks.

ReplyDeleteVery lovely photos of the beach. Like the clear blue sea. I have a beach photo for my world too but our beach is not as beautiful as your part of the world.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely place.....I would love to see this in person!
ReplyDeletewhat a journey it has been... kainggit.. sana makarating din ako dyan sa mga lugar na yan :)
ReplyDeleteI think that is an art I need to learn. I'd prefer to do it with electricity, but maybe I could adjust.
ReplyDeleteAng ganda at kalmado nga ang place .
ReplyDeleteMabuti naman at kaunti pa ang tao at di pa gaanong dinadayo ng mga bakasyonista.
