The pictures posted here are downsized from the high-res versions. Information on licensing high-res versions or purchasing prints is on my personal page. I do occasionally license my pictures for free but only upon email request. So if you'd like to use a shot for free, check my licensing page above.
If you find a picture of you,
and you're an individual, you'll probably be able to get the high-res image for free. Just contact me via Flickrmail or use the email at the bottom of my web page.
So, about me...
I'm a professional speaker specializing in training on sales and use taxes. I also enjoy photography and do classes on that as well. I have been fortunate to work all over the USA (49 states so far), so I have had the opportunity to take pictures in many places.
I used to wield a camera when I was about seven through my mid-twenties. Then I got tired of taking pictures, paying for processing, and just keeping the pictures in boxes. But when I saw a picture a friend had taken with a digital camera in late 2002, I got back into it - buying a Sony Cybershot DSC 717. I was addicted again.
I moved up to Nikon in 2005 and now own a D90, a D70 , Speedlights, and assorted equipage. I'm not going to list it all because, for the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone would care. I joined Flickr in 2005 and now I definitely don't have to keep my photos in boxes anymore!
I've started a few groups here on Flickr, but my favorite, and one I encourage you to join if you're in the western suburbs of Chicago, is West Suburban Chicago Flickrers
Making me a contact and commenting
I try to limit my contacts to people I actually know, face to face. Or someone I've had some interaction with online. I actually look at every picture that my contacts post, so I need to keep the number of contacts manageable.
I appreciate your making me a contact, but please don't expect me to reciprocate immediately.
Also, please remember that making someone a contact or "friend" doesn't really mean they're now your BFF.
Graphics in comments
I would appreciate it if you'd refrain from posting graphics in the comments unless it's relevant to the thread.. I'll probably delete it. I appreciate the thought, but I don't want to look at that graphic every time I look at my own picture.
Group invitations
Go crazy with invitations if you're an admin for the group and you use the group invitation option under "actions." That's the easiest way to invite a picture, and it is the easiest for me.
I will usually submit a picture to a topic specific group. But I won't submit a picture to a general group, particularly one that requires commenting or faving. So please don't be offended.
Thanks for stopping by
Thanks for viewing my photos. All those comments, views and favorites make me feel all warm and fuzzy. I hope you enjoy them.

"Jim is the quintessential renaissance man of photography. With much experience he gladly helps others and manages several flickr group including the West Suburban Chicago Flickrers, a very active group of photographers. I particularly enjoy how he documents the places he travels in photographs. Often very artistic and always technically top notch, I recommend his photostream to you for a great variety of photographic subjects, techniques and, best of all, a wonderful sense of humor."
