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.
At CFS Gander Newfoundland in February 1978. 103 Rescue Unit (as it was then called) had just stood up. At the time they were using the Labrador helicopter.

This far up the Labrador coast the land is very barren. No trees other than very small and sparse bushes. It looks out into the Straight Of Belle Isle.
As far as I can see, there seems to have been little change in the vegetation from 1910 up till 1973, His photos show a forest very like the one we saw. Whether this is still the case today, I don't know, but I believe that the vegetation here is heavily influenced by climate and may be useful as a means of evaluating effects of climatic changes.
In any event, I can only say that I feel privileged to have been able to visit this wonderful place - and I hope that others may enjoy it through these images.

Star trails over Labrador Bay, with a trawler coming into Brixham Harbour along the horizon. A nice touch.
