Preface: This week just a simple drop and go. Please excuse that I haven't been that active the last week and won't be active in the week to come. I'm suffering from flu since last sunday, including fever and stuff. I'm feeling terrible, but didn't want to miss a shot of my 52 weeks project this year ;)
Now let's get to the shot. This is one of 5 shots (the best I could get considering my current condition) I took of Milla when she came back from a long hike with my wife and her friend Whisky (the dog not the drink), an Australian Shepherd. It was raining terribly so Milla thought it would be fun to go for a swim. As you can see... She is much stronger than me :D The water is ice cold, but Miss Labrador doesn't mind. Ok, they are bred for doing so, but still, it's very impressive!
Technical info: There was almost no light at all, so I had to use a flash shot through an umbrella. Fortunately, the set up is always ready to go.
Labrador Nature Reserve (Chinese: 拉柏多自然保护区), also locally known as Labrador Park (拉柏多公园), is located in the southern part of the main island of Singapore. It is an oasis of tranqulity and natural wonder. It contains the only rocky sea-cliff on the mainland that is accessible to the public.
Among Jimmy's nicknames is "Big-Ears". This pic shows them off quite well. Sometimes I think his daddy was a Great Dane :-)
Guess where the chipmunk is.
And this is Thor, a neighbor's puppy, all 96 lbs. of him! He comes by to visit his playmate (me) every morning. He's a sweetie! This is a practice run. I am trying to get better photos of him as he is much to busy to sit still for a sketch. Once I have those images I'll have another go.
