But all of that seems to have been covered below. So I'll just say how envious I am of some of the incredible places that he's been to, and grateful that he has seen fit to share those experiences with us in a medium that he utilizes so well.

Having the privilege of enjoying Jim’s outstanding imagery for several years, I can honestly say he’s among the best I’ve seen – professional or otherwise. His vision, particularly in landscape work, technical expertise and commitment results in truly stunning work. Moreover, Jim is as dedicated to the institution of… Read more

Having the privilege of enjoying Jim’s outstanding imagery for several years, I can honestly say he’s among the best I’ve seen – professional or otherwise. His vision, particularly in landscape work, technical expertise and commitment results in truly stunning work. Moreover, Jim is as dedicated to the institution of photography -- and maintaining business integrity in the new world of digital media -- as he is to the art of producing extremely high-quality shots.
