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!

After some days off-line for a long Easter week-end, the LWitG collage (Last Week in the Gallery - week 14/2007) is a great feature to catch up with all the wonderful images missed Sorry for being so late Excellent & moody composition with the reflections ! Congratulations for your selection !

...fine contrasts here, love the sepia tones and the dead tree gives a kind of mystique to it.

If the image were just a tad lighter we would achieve two things, first more detail in the forground and second, we would feel it is fog and not polulted haze. On the other hand, the composition and the fact we are only given an outlie of the tree and its shadow, along with the few ducks gives this a Zen like feeling. Thank you for sharing. egmont
