Thanks, Doug!  What beautiful photos!  Here is what he says about his 
printing process:

All larger prints are of the 'archival pigment' ink-jet type, made 
with Epson 'Ultra-Chrome' inks and 'Semi-Matte' paper, and are 
identical to those exhibited by William Burt.  Prints of this process 
are richly colored, exquisitely detailed and subtly toned, and 
remarkably long-lived as well: in all, the finest this photographer 
and printer has ever seen.  Estimated display life: 75 years minimum.
