It’s Oh So Quiet at Puerto Princesa beach. The photographer wrote, “At the beach a lot of things wash up ashore. Some of them were given to the sea by their owners who had no intention of seeing this refuse at all afterward. Whatever we send out to the rest of the world, we should be able to welcome back if it decides to return. Someone, somewhere, will always receive it, and if it happens to be you, I think it shall be true justice.” Photo #3 by jojoscope
