Boracay Island at sunrise, under a sky heavy with low clouds, with blue dawn light washing over everything. A beach of fine white sand with an extremely shallow incline slips beneath the inch-high waves rolling gently to shore. Tiny figures stroll along the sand in the distance. A mass of shadowy palm trees at left. In the shallow water just offshore is a low line of rocks, the site of a religious shrine. Boats dot the horizon, among vague silhouettes of other distant islands.
