Hey, my name's Tim, and I'm 17.

I live in Haiti as a missionary kid. My family has been here for 5 years now, and I'm loving it!

Our family spent a year as missionaries in Lithuania and a few months in Mexico, but aside from that, I've lived in Kamloops, B.C. Canada all my life.

Here's my families website. The mission we work with is called Harvest International. www.harvestinternational.org/rodwray.html

I'm a complete Amateur in photography but I try my best and hope to make some good photos. Do Not hesitate to give me some advice, consructive criticism, or just plain tips on making my photographs better.

While I try and spare as much time as I can for photography I also play pretty much every sport you can think of. When we have teams come from the States/Canada I go out with them and translate as I've picked up the local Haitian language; Creole.

If you want to use my Photo's or want to know more about me, hit me up with a message :D

Thanks to all of my contacts for your support! and everyone who views, comments, and fav's my Photo's!

1 Timothy 6:11: But flee from these things, you man of God, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance and gentleness.

    "I've only been in flickr about 5 months. This is a hobby I have taken on and I really enjoy it. It is written "A picture is worth a thousand words",needless to say, your pictures are priceless. I hope to one day achieve the excellence of your photography. Your photos are peaceful, beautiful and wonderful. If you go through the photo stream you will see the variety of subjects and great eye for beauty that is captured in the pics.

    "I can’t say enough about someone who is certainly headed for glory. Tim has the eye of a professional and the Tim's always thinking about his next shot and how to best compose it under difficult situations. He has his Lord and Savior peering looking over his shoulder and guiding him in his life and hobby; a mix of talent and spirituality that can’t be beat.

I enjoy watching his stream as it blossoms more and more from each image captured! Not only an outstanding photographer but something I've also seen is his qualities of how he loves his family.

    "Incredible! Brilliant! Inspirational! Breathtaking!

    These are just some of the words I use to describe Tim's photography. They are all works of art and are many of my most favourite images on Flickr and certainly one of my favourite photographers here.

    I am in awe of the beauty of his captures and look forward to continually being inspired, challenged & educated by his obvious talent as a photographer and artist.

    He truly is gifted.

    Thank you for sharing your gift Tim ... I look forward to seeing the world through your eyes.

    "Tim's vision is unlike any other I've seen on Flickr. This guy has only been on flickr for barely 3 months...and look at the success and popularity he's acquired in such a short amount of time...it's because of his unique perception and execution of photography. Not only is Tim a great photographer, but I'm sure he knows a thing or two about the ladies...just look at his stream! He never has a shortage of women to photograph...and they all obviously do it very willingly! Well good for you, Tim. Good for you."

    Little Thoughts says:

    "The first photo I saw from Tim was Prayer. I was absoluty amazed by its perfectness. Then I looked at the rest of his stream and realized Prayer wasnt just a lucky shot, it was part of a whole photostream of perfect photographs! Tim is a huge inspiriation to me. I also think he should be some sort of Haiti spokesman because I cant think of anyone who advertises the place better than he does! Keep it up Tim!"

    .................................................. says:

    "When I first was told to "go look at his photos!" (by Jen of course!) I was a bit skeptical of the classic-looking beautifully done shots and the hundreds of comments on each. I was afraid that this was one of those people with thousands of contacts but no heart, someone who didn't really look at anyone else's pictures. Well boy was I totally wrong : P over the past few months I've admired Tim's work to the point where, if I had a beautiful sunset-lit beach or a gigantic meadow in front of me, I would most likely try to copy him. He's been a huge inspiration to me and will continue to be...in just a few months on flickr he has already become one of the best photographers here. And I know a lot of photographers here with lots of fancy expensive equipment, strobes...etc. Tim has what THEY would call a bottom-of-the-line DSLR, a few lenses, etc. So what?! I can't deny it - if these claims are true, then Tim has pushed his equipment beyond their means - and by that, I mean that he is a truly fantastic photographer."

    "Timhaiti's images are always full of vibrant colours and natural light, each shot is unique. He is very generous to his Flickr contacts and always takes the time to comment. He shows off his beautiful Haiti, in his wonderful photostream. In his images he captures the true beauty of the world around him. I look forward to viewing his new images."

    "Where to start with Tim...
    Every time I come by his stream, I am just stopped in my tracks by the beauty that he has recorded with his camera. His sisters on sun-drenched beaches or dancing in grassy meadows, hidden ponds and rivers, deserted beaches--and so many other lovely things! The color and life presented in his photographs are phenomenal. Each time I stop by his page, I am surprised again by a creative and beautiful picture.
    Tim is also a great and genuine person and flickr friend and always has the time to stop by and leave a kind comment. You won't regret getting to know him.
    Keep on Tim!"

    "Tim is one of my favorite folks on flickr. He's very decent and interesting ;-) and from what I can tell his sister's have turned him into quite a gentleman, LOL. I get excited every time I see a new upload from him, because he seriously truly truly SEES and then captures into a photograph. Plus he is constantly learning and improving himself, so every time I visit he's got something way cool and different from anything I would ever expect. Tim is way awesome. ;-)"
