CEBU CITY, Philippines – Today is World Photography Day.
On this internationally recognized day, photographers “share their world with the world” through photos in order to raise awareness about their incredible art form.
The celebration is also a reminder that each click of the shutter captures more than just an image; it freezes a moment in time, allowing us to revisit it whenever we want to.
