The Nikko Waterfall from Afar I’ve been pretty lame, frankly, in finishing up my Nikon 18-200 Review. But, this is a photo that I took with that lens when I was in Japan. I wanted to show the vast range of the lens, and this is the “zoomed out” view. In coming weeks, I’ll post the “zoomed in” view, so you can see the tremendous range. Yes, it’s a cropped lens so I can’t use my full-frame, but it’s not really the end of the world. It’s light, cheap, and very flexible… these are some nice plusses!I had never gotten to a waterfall in such a unique way! I started at the top of this thing and took an elevator DOWN, hundreds of feet. I then went through about a quarter-mile of caves to emerge at the bottom, where I got this perspective. It was really unique and messed with my whole sense of location. I’m so used to taking the elevator “up” to get somewhere interesting. I had to put on my earphones to listen to some unique music to get my bearings back before shooting this photo.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Icy Part of the Waterfall This waterfall was enormous! I've never been to Angel Falls in South America, although that is on my list. I know that these places are extremely difficult to photograph.

There is still snow and ice in the highlands, and you can see a small pack of it here behind the waterfall. I also have a "zoomed out" version of this on the review page mentioned above. - Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Lake at Nikko This place was Cold with a capital C, as you can plainly see. And worse, I had forgotten my special little gloves with the flip-up fingertips. So I was goin' finger-commando while trying to line up this shot. The wind was pretty stiff in my face. The wind always seems to be against you, eh? I think I just never notice it when it comes from any other angle.By the way, there is only one place that is convenient to quickly warm up your fingers ... - Trey Ratcliff Read the rest at the Stuck in Customs blog!
