No, such a place is not a figment of one’s mind; nor is it found in a foreign land – this piece of Paradise at the northernmost tip of the Philippines, Batanes.

In so many words, Batanes’ beauty still fails to be translated; but to the photographer such a glimpse need not only be committed to the mind. Indeed, this almost magical place enraptures the photographer and instills upon him a fervent spirit to capture the landscape with his lenses.

With every shot the photographer takes, a piece of the land is taken with him; but unfortunately, there are few printers which can produce photographs that give justice to photographers’ art and his vision of the landscape.

Through Epson’s newest line of multi-function printers, quality and cost need not separate. Quality photo prints from the Stylus Photo R290, RX610 and the CX9300 are able to give photographs the clarity it demands.

With photo laboratory quality image printing the printers are sure to capture every detail of Batanes’ landscape in print.  In addition, these Epson printers feature the Photo Enhance technology which analyses image data and adjusts printer settings to optimize the photo output -- making sure that the photo is perfect each and every time.

Epson’s commitment to unsurpassed and reliable printing every time, the photographer can rest assured that none of the beauty of their vision of Batanes is taken away because of faulty printing. The photographs they take remain vibrant and colorful throughout the years with longevity lasting up to 200 years under dark album storage thanks to Claria Photographic Ink, an exceptional dye-based formulation.

In addition to these features, the Stylus Photo R290, RX610 and the CX9300, photographers can print their images of Batanes anytime and anywhere they want to since these imaging tools are imbued with PC-less connectivity options. They can transfer files for printing by simply connecting Pictbridge-enabled devices, memory card options, USB Direct Print or even go wireless via the optional Bluetooth connections available in some models.

The landscape of Batanes has always remained enchanting but through photography the entire world can now share in its wonder. Photography in Batanes has never been so beautiful, the arrival of Epson’s Multi-functional printers to the shores of Basco in Batanes, it also has never been easier.
