Need help with regular expressions

[Great Avenger Singh]

I am making a script that will show the list of JPG files and saving
that list with xargs for further processing. When I am using echo to
get the file names it adds "./" in the start of every filename.

find . -type f -iname '*.JPG' -print0 |
xargs -0 -n 1 -P 1 -I {} \
echo The file is \'{}\'!

It is showing following output:

The file is './DSC_7555.JPG'!

How to remove "./" in the start of every file name?
