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!

superb shot! beautiful lighting

That sounds like a good assignment...all that does it teach you to look at things differently, there is always a different point of view on everything. You just have to use your imagination...as far as the photo... Great contrast and composition! Keep up the great work!

Not one of your best shots... a lot of distracting elements in this one, but other than that it works nicely :) Good luck with the popsicle sculpture... my mate studying architecture was once given an assignment to spend 5 in a local supermarket and build the tallest structure possible with that money and whatever they could find - i think spaghetti was used ;)

Excellent view!

I think this is wonderful. Soooo moody. Your title fits this well, actually. Sorry about the sculpting class. I hated my sculpting class. But that's because we had to use this icky wet gray clay and it dried on your hands while you were using it, and I hated(!) that feeling. I think I spent more time washing my hands at the sink, than with them in the clay, lol. You'll get through it sweetie. -M :^)

Love the photo. I'm sure I'd have similar sentiments over that assignment as well... Sounds brainless; could be fun from that perspective.

As a freshman, that's what you're supposed to feel like. Otherwise, why would you be willing to put in 3+ more years? I really like the pic. It's also very moody. Well done, Kai.
