Ready for images that make you stop, feel the cold mountain air, and smell the sagebrush as you sit at your computer? Take a few minutes to browse through Jim Stimson's portfolio. His images are so beautiful; so well presented; so eloquently captured; that it caused all of us at West Coast Imaging to stop working, congregate around the print finishing table, and take a few minutes to enjoy landscape photography at its best.

Stimson recently sent dozens of images to West Coast Imaging, for scanning and printing using our Print Lab. Stimson printed his images on Hanhemuhle Photo Rag and Fuji Crystal Archive paper, choosing the medium that best, "suits the palette of a particular image," Stimson said.

"West Coast Imaging does my drum scanning, printing, and best yet, they provide exceptional service. Rich and Jeff have helped guide me through a couple of "head scratching" sessions with Photoshop to find the key to printing difficult images," Stimson said.

"My latest exhibition at the Mountain Light Gallery in Bishop, California will be printed with a combination of Chromira and Giclées on Hahnemühle Photo Rag papers, all from scans and prints produced by West Coast Imaging."
