Welcome to Timbuktoo Photos.  I developed this site in 2014 as a way to share photos with family and friends.  Since then, I've added photos from trips and experiences around the world.  I've had the privilege to work as a public health consultant for over 35 years, mostly in developing countries, taking me to fascinating places around the world.  I've also been fortunate to travel for fun to many parts of the US and other countries, and those trips are also represented here.  I have many photographic interests, but birds, wildlife, and interesting people feature most.  If there's an overall theme, it would be to marvel at and appreciate the remarkable planet we live on - I even made an Apple book very roughly following Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" (what a wonderful song!); you can see some contents of that in one of the links below.
Click on any of the headings below for latest uploads.  Or just enjoy the slide show above. The 
icons above the slideshow have links to additional tabs for Places, Birds, Wildlife, and others such as sports and abstracts in the "More" tab.  See also my YouTube channel at:

Notice - my apologies as the site is experiencing some technical difficulties due to a quirk with Adobe Lightroom.  Lightroom is assigning photo ID numbers to newly added photos that are duplicates of old photos.  As a result, some photos in any given gallery may come from a completely different country.  This happens with fewer than 1% of all photos, but when it does it may cause quite a surprise.  I am slowly correcting the problem when I notice it, but I may not catch all of them for a while.
