East Central Labrador
One of many river valleys that continue to drain the land into the sea. Where once stood young mountains now sit rock legends surrounded by hills and terraces of glaciated sand.
The sand is carried for hundreds of miles through large networks of rivers before falling at the mouth of narrow coastal inlets.
Valleys of deep sand allow young rivers to leave abstract routes. The bends eventually pinch off leaving bow shaped ponds.
A steady and strong flow of water generating standing waves near the mouth of the Kanairtok river. In mid July the returning salmon will swim hard to move deep inland to the spawning ground.

Close up's around the water
Sometimes we need to stop, look, listen and see the finer things in life. Although apparently lifeless it moves accross the water like a life raft waiting for a survivor.

A bald eagle swooping into the trees where where my girlfriend stood. I was lucky to have my camera around my neck, and to still have a girlfriend. Styles Cove
Caribou grazing on dried grass and caribou moss outside of Buchans.
An old rusted steam powerd wench used in the mill at Millertown.
Northern Lights bursting in the night sky above a Labrador exploration camp.
The reflection of the morning sky in a still estuary near Trepassey. Sheltered from the pounding sea beyond the cobblestone beach.
