I was born in Zimbabwe on 03/06/88. My family, consisting of parents, older brother and sister, migrated to South Africa when I was six months old. We moved back to Zimbabwe six years later, to help my grandparents on their farm - a career change for my father.
After a measly eighteen months we upped sticks and went farming on our own. This led us to Kwekwe, in the heart of Zimbabwe, to farm tobacco! Borrowdale farm which is part of the "Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy" is where we settled . This was the most incredible experience, living with such an abundance of wild life ........... of which we became a part of during the school holidays! Due to the "land redistribution policy" we had no option but to move on.
10th November, 2001 saw us arrive in New Zealand with our former lives packed into a suitcase each, ready to start our new lives. Our first three years were spent on the South Island and I nearly froze!!!!!!! A great employment opportunity for my father had us move up to the North Island. I now live on a farm just outside Matamata aka "Hobbiton" (defrosting).
Yep that should sum it up ha!

Absolutely gorgeous shot buddy. The different colors are truly beautiful. Sorry to hear about your camera....but are you sure you didnt just touch some dial or something on your camera? Ive had that myself, where my autofocus wont beep and i think i wrecked the camera...then it turns out i only switched to sequential focusing by accident and then you dont get the beep. Before you get all depressed i suggest you check that out. #;o) Have a wonderful day!

Very beautiful ! I especially like that you captured 3 different colors of the water on the photo.

Yes, we all agree about the stunning colors you managed !! And the first thing I thought seeing your wave pic, before reading you, was " oh a surfer wave !!" French surfers call that a tube (or pipe)when I was sixteen... Gorgeous ! Thanks for sharing q:) Magali

The colours and the frozen action on the surf is incredible. I am sorry to hear about your cam's focus.

Ahhh The aquatic colour of the ocean, and the way the light runs through the waves always leaves me in awe with God's creation. What a perfect shot! Love it!

... and here I am, yesterday, while shooting horseshoe lake, I turned that beep OFF! lol I do miss it .. and will probably turn it back on. Anyway, sorry to hear your camera isn't behaving as it should. I've often wondered if that happened to me ... what would I do ??? I'll cross that bridge when I get to it; and hopefully I'll never see that bridge. Oh yeah .. the pic :) ITS GORGEOUS!!!!

The best part about this are the sherbet-like colors in the wave! Amazing. :0)

Tri colored waves - that's something else. A brilliant photo in every aspect. Who needs autofocus anyway...;) I'm abandoning it more and more these days. Zacko's tip sound like a good one to me. AF Lock or stuff like that tends to do that.
