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!

This is an amazing place! And you capture its essence beautifully! Watch your feet though, the perfect shot may be worth aching shins, but not a broken neck. :)

Oh so very beautiful!!! Places around here won't look like this for about 6 months now, but yes another lovely time of year. And ouch! But yes, probably worth it, we've all taken hits for the greater benefit of photography, methinks ;-) Glad you saved the camera without much injury to yourself.

Great place and fantastic shot, Your lighting and compo is great, I love the softness of the little water fall. I hope your poor shins get better, glad the damage wasnt more serious. Have a great week.

Didn't the moss make for a soft landing? This is so beautiful and the green a beautiful green. You've captured the water superbly. I hope your bruises heal quickly.
