Global Travel & Adventures

New York City, NY

New York City is an incredible place, with its unique atmosphere. Perhaps this is the most photogenic city ever seen. This cultural diversity, I still have not seen anywhere else. During your trip, try to visit most of districts of this amazing city: Brooklyn, Manhattan, Harlem, Queens, Williamsburg, Red Hook, each in its own good, and has its own distinctive features. Despite the warnings of many friends, you will meet everywhere in the main kind and helpful people. Many, seeing the camera, asked my from where I came from and what I do. However, some of them were too emotional, but, as a rule, all ended on verbally level. All month of my stay in New York, I kept shooting, were taken not only timelapses, but also a lot of reportage shots that you will see in my next videos. To sum up, one would say that New York is one of the most interesting and richest places on earth, where you want to return again and again.   03/01/2017 ~ Timothy Rollins                                                                                          Vimeo HD Video © 2015 by Dimid  All Rights Reserved

San Francisco, CA

San Francisco, in northern California, is a hilly city on the tip of a peninsula surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. It's known for its year-round fog, iconic Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars and colorful Victorian houses. The Financial District's Transamerica Pyramid is its most distinctive skyscraper. In the bay sits Alcatraz Island, site of the notorious former prison. This visit impressed me so much, it was very different that I heard before about California, and was also different what I saw on the East. I liked the wild nature of this beautiful place: ocean, waves, forests, mountains all of this was awesome. I enjoyed the beauty of Big Sur, its a perfect place for rest and taking pictures. But SF left to me ambigiuous impression: from one side its rich and big city with beautiful scapes, but from other side I saw a lot of poor and sick people, more then in other cities seen by me. I liked sunny and fresh weather, incredible hilly landscape of this city, big bridges, scycreapers, trams, palm trees, all of this pleased me. But sometimes I feel wrong atmosphere in the downtown, I dont know how to explain, but this feeling was really strong, may be because the city center is overcrowded. Anyway it was very good and important experience of my life. I want to come back and visit other places of the California.  03/01/2017 ~ Timothy Rollins                                                                                          Vimeo HD Video © 2015 by Dimid  All Rights Reserved

London, UK

London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, is a 21st-century city with history stretching back to Roman times. At its centre stand the imposing Houses of Parliament, the iconic ‘Big Ben’ clock tower and Westminster Abbey, site of British monarch coronations. Across the Thames River, the London Eye observation wheel provides panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex, and the entire city. African-initiated Pentecostal churches are on the rise in the United Kingdom, particularly in London. In an era of ongoing austerity, the British government and councils have called on local communities and organisations, including faith-based institutions, to help meet social welfare needs. Although African-initiated Pentecostal churches ostensibly have a role in British civil society, Pentecostals are generally thought to eschew civic engagement activities and social action    03/01/2017 ~ Timothy Rollins                                                                                                                    Vimeo HD Video © 2014 by Dimid  All Rights Reserved

Singapore, MALAYSIA

Its colonial core centers on the Padang, a cricket field since the 1830's and now flanked by grand buildings such as City Hall, with its 18 Corinthian columns. I was impressed so much of this place, of its accuracy and civility. I also liked climate, hot with sudden rains and thunderstorms. The sky of Singapore made a special big impression on me, it always different and changing very fast, and its beautiful sunsets is always on my mind. Christians in Singapore constitute approximately 18% of the Country's population. In 2010, about 38.5% of the country's Christians identified as Catholic and 61.5% as 'Other Christians' (chiefly Protestants). A Pew Center study about religion and education around the world in 2016, found that between the various Christian communities, Singapore outranks other nations in terms of Christians who obtain a university degree in institutions of higher education (67%)  03/01/2017 ~ Timothy Rollins                                                                        Vimeo HD Video © 2014 by Dimid  All Rights Reserved
