Welcome to CIMI Corporation's Digital Image Gallery
Below, you will find links to each of the collections presently
available for viewing or purchase. Each collection is a series of
thumbnails that can be clicked for a larger view of the photo.
Magazine and book publishers and other purchasers of commercial images
may reference the image file names in the collections to get additional

catalog is presented online. For inquiries, click HERE.
Prints are available from these images in various sizes, depending on

Collections:
1. Polar Bears, Churchill, Manitoba.
This is a collection of images from an October 2001 trip to Churchill ,
Manitoba , for polar bear viewing. This was shot with film.
2. Katmai Coast.
This is a collection of images from our June 2002 trip to Alaska 's
Kodiak Island and Katmai National Park , for brown bear viewing.
The images here were taken within several miles of the site of the bear
attack in October 2003, where two people were killed. This trip
was also shot on film.
3. Yellowstone Winter.
This image set was taken on our trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton
National Parks in January 2003. An electronic book of this adventure
will be available in early summer 2003. New! Our second and final
group of images from this trip are now available; CLICK HERE or on the collection name above for the first set, CLICK HERE for the second! This trip was shot with a digital SLR.
4. Coastal British Columbia.
This image set was taken on a magnificent voyage on Cruise West's
Spirit of Columbia in April/May, 2003. New! The entire collection
for this trip is now posted.
5. More Polar Bears in Churchill.
This collection is from the trip we completed on November 10, 2003 ,
and offers our first digital images of the bears. There are many
more images in this collection, but this is the only group we'll be
posting.
6. Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, and Eastern Idaho in the Spring.
This collection is from we completed in May, 2004. The trip returned us
to Yellowstone and the Tetons, where we had visited in winter
previously, and also included Craters of the Moon and other scenic
locations in eastern Idaho and southwestern Montana.
7. Newfoundland.
Newfoundland is perhaps the most rugged and photogenic of Canada's
Atlantic provinces. These photos were taken on a trip sponsored
by Natural Habitat Adventures in June/July 2004.
8. Iceland
. An often-brooding northern land where the clouds create their
own unique landscape, Iceland is one of the most dramatic places I've
ever visited and one of the most challenging to photograph. The
photos on this trip were taken in early September 2004 on a Natural
Habitat Adventures tour.
9. Patagonia.
Argentina is a lovely mixture of European charm and cuisine and
Alaska-like scenery. Not an easy place to get to, or to get
around it, Patagonia is arrestingly beautiful and a place that I'm sure
I'll return to. The photos on this trip were taken in March 2005
on a Natural Habitat Adventures tour.
10. Spitsbergen
. This was absolutely the most adventurous thing I've ever
done! The scenery was wild, the animals wilder, and it's not
every day you're closer to the North Pole than to the Arctic
Circle. This is the first of two groups of shots; click HERE for the second group. The photos on this trip were taken in July 2005 on a Natural Habitat Adventures tour.
11. Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons in Fall. Our third trip to Yellowstone, and we still found new and wonderful things!
12. The Bering Sea, Aleutians, and Siberia.
Cruise West and the Spirit of Oceanus took us to places no tourist has
gone before, and provided a magnificent view of a truly beautiful piece
of the world. This trip was taken in June of 2006.
13. Northeastern Greenland.
The Professor Molchanov and Oceanwide Expeditions combine to offer us a
view of a part of this planet that most people will never see. This
trip was taken in September 2006.
14. Wild Scotland.
Scotland isn't all bagpipes and peaty whiskey. Natural Habitat
Adventures shows you a very wild part of Scotland, with crashing seas,
neolithic sites, seals, birds...you get the picture. There are some
bagpipes, of course, as well as an astonishing variety of Scotch!
15. California Wine Country.
This isn't a place you'd normally associate with a cruise, but we did
one nevertheless. Cruise West was our cruise line, and the trip,
in October 2007, was so much fun we've decided to do further wine trips
in the future.
16. Churchill 2007.
We return, courtesy of Natural Habitat Adventure, to the wildlife trip
we've taken the most often. Visiting Churchill's polar bears is
perhaps the most accessible and dependable wildlife adventure you can
have, so check this out if you're interested in taking a look at what
some believe is a vanishing species.
17. The Falklands, South Georgia, and Antarctica. This is THE TRIP,
the one everyone dreams of doing, and the one that now holds the record
for my largest number of photos taken! Oceanwide Expeditions
provides transportation to some of the most incredible experiences and
sights you can imagine!
Please note that the trips below use
the JALBUM image builder. When you click the link, you'll see a
folder index that describes two or three classes of pictures (in the
case of Japan it's Faces, Flowers, and the Journey). Clicking on
one will show you the images there. Jalbum supports slide shows
and other navigation features, so you should click on the "Help" link
at the bottom of the folders page to learn how to use the program!
18. A Cruise of the Japanese Islands and Korea.
Cruise West provides a small-ship luxury experience cruising the
southern portion of the Japanese islands with a jaunt over to Korea.
This is the kind of trip that will transform your view of Japan,
especially if all you've seen is Tokyo.
19. Bryce, Zion, and North Rim Grand Canyon.
Another Natural Habitat Adventures wonder trip! Most people never
see the first two canyons, or the north rim of the Grand Canyon, and
the guides on this trip were truly magnificent!
20. The Arctic: Devon, Baffin, and Ellesmere Island and Northwest Greenland.
This was a Quark trip that got us to 82 degrees north, only 477
miles from the North Pole and into locations where we were the 13th
ship in history to reach.
Other collections will be added as we take the trips!
