Hey folks, you may want to check this site for your images.
https://mystic-journeys.netfirms.com/mjwildthings/book_samples.htm

I know personally a few other photogs who's work was stolen, so I wouldn't be surprised if this lunatic took anyone else's work form here as well.

by the by, he got a hate mail already, and his reply was this:

Sir,
You have to be one of the lowest of low life's there are when you have to
stand in for somone else. Either support your word bashing or go back to
Canuck school. As an extremely admired professional photographer it seems
that low life photographers have stolen my work especially those from
Canada and have made false accusations that I was the one who stole from
them to try and make fame for themselves. But you know what, that's ok
because karma will come back and bite you. Knock your socks off and keep
stealing my work if that makes you feel good. Don't email me anymore
because people like you and your friends just disgust me and just want to
make me call the Minister of Affairs up there for wire harassment. Enjoy
your life for whatever it is worth.

    It appears that there are some issues with the linkage on the site.

    Are you certain that the owner of "mystic-journeys.netfirms.com" is the same as the owner of "mjwildthings.com"?

    Do any copyright infringed images exist on the "mjwildthings.com" site, or just on the "mystic-journeys.netfirms.com" site?

    The reason I'm asking is that sometimes scammers copy an entire site from someone else and then "repurpose" the site for their own intentions, unbeknownst to the original site owner. I suspect that the "mystic-journeys.netfirms.com" might be a scam site, copied from the original site. If so, the form at the order page at "mystic-journeys.netfirms.com" may not link back to Dr. Michael Jessup, who may be legitimate as far as I can tell.

    Ziggy, the domain appears to confirm that.

    The MJwildthings.com website is suspended. Not sure why but hopefully for what you pointed out.
