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!

Not ugly at all - light and colors are great. Maybe a noise filtering a la Noiseware(not as aggressive as Neat image) might help out somewhat. Both otherwise actually one of your best!

Amazing how the tone mapping helped it. I really like the end result and effect.

Every image is a personal vision of subject, pov, composition, and emotional interpretation and each is the result of meshing technical qualities, editing choices and that personal vision into a finished image. It seems you succeed in this better than you thought (based on my and others response to it). You presented this capture of this exact moment exquisitly. Thanks for sharing. Lee
