Trey Ratcliff | Stuck In Customs | HDR Photography Portfolio : Photo Keywords : architecture : <h2>The Fed Ex Forum Awaiting the New Season</h2> I was lucky enough to get a tour of the Memphis Grizzlies home stadium when there was hardly anyone around. The Fed-Ex Forum is an amazing facility. I think it looks like a great place to go watch games. The surrounding downtown area is also very cool... seems like it would be a great way to spend a night out. I've never been in Memphis on game night, but I'll be sure to make that happen some time! Also I got to go back in the locker room and meet some of the players. The guys were so nice and affable... I couldn't get over it. I don't know what I expected, but they were just all really young nice dudes. And then I saw this little underwater rehab/training facility. It was really wide and had this conveyor belt that ran under water. I asked why it was so wide and was told it was originally used for horse rehab! Crazy...hehe... Memphis finally got a good pick in the draft... #2! That's great for those guys... go Grizzlies! - Trey Ratcliff <a href="http://www.stuckincustoms.com/2009/05/28/the-fed-ex-forum-awaiting-the-new-season/" rel="nofollow">Click here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.</a>

Meandering in the French Streets After Dark I don't sleep much, even when I am home. I get a good 5-6 hours of sleep a night; but when I travel, I'm so charged up I get less. These foreign city streets seem to have a romantic sense about them, so that impedes even more on my sleep since there are so many great places to shoot.This perfect little European medieval street was in Lyon, if I am not mistaken. Sometimes I forget here in my old age. There's a 10% chance it is in Paris. There's a long path from click to final image and my memory fades betwixt.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

Romance in India My first impression of romance in India came from Bollywood. I was pretty sure that everyone fell in love then spent a long time dancing around a grapefruit tree. There are other dancers involved, nearby, of course, as well as a series of fountains, slow-motion cattle, Hinduesque yodeling.But then, after being there, I saw romance was the same as just about everywhere else. I did capture this couple together, exploring Humayun's Tomb in the middle of Delhi. Enjoy!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

A Sea of Glass - The Chihuly Exhibit at the Bellagio in Vegas I've always thought the Dale Chihuly glass sculptures are some of the coolest things in the world. I'd love to learn how to blow glass. It always looks dangerous and exotic. I remember when I got my HDTV a few years ago, one of the first shows I saw was when Chihuly was doing this exhibit in Venice. He spent some time in Murano, which is near Venice and a famous place for glass blowing. They made these amazing sculptures then hung them all over Venice. I wish I could have gone there to take photographs of the event!In other news, I was interviewed yesterday by an extremely nice guy named Victor Cajiao who hosts a podcast called "Typical Shutterbug". Click there and you can hear my interview. We talk a little about the upcoming book, HDR, do's and don't, and this sort of thing. If you enjoyed the show, leave him a comment there -- I'm sure he'd appreciate it!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

Houston at Dusk I've had (the pleasure) to go to Houston a few (too many) times this year. I always end up staying downtown, which affords me some good opportunities to take photos at dusk. Usually I am busy (being drained) and can't actually get out to shoot at sunset, so whenever I have a chance, I do my best to get a good one.This was shot from the top of the Magnolia Hotel, which is a very cool place to stay, if you ever make it down thataway.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

New York, New York Is it a sad thing to say that one of the most fun things I did in Vegas was walk around by myself and take photos? Yes, I think that sounds kinda sad. But it's true! What a great place for photography. The lights are insane, the textures are off-the-wall, and everywhere you look is a feast for the eyes. It's also a real challenge to try to get everything just right in the photo. With so many light levels working against one another on your sensor, it takes a bit to get it right.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

The Mini-Land of San Francisco Everyone always seems to like San Francisco, eh? It's one of those places that people either have fond memories of, or an ongoing feeling like they need to go there.I know some photographers are probably familiar with this tilt-shift type of shot. For those of you not familiar with it, there is a way to take photos and convert them into something that looks like a miniature. You can do it in-camera with a certain kind of lens, or afterwards with some post-processing. I don't do a lot of tilt-shift stuff, but I thought I would share this one!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.

Parisian Blue Skies over the Rodin Chateau It was a perfectly beautiful day on my first visit to the Rodin museum in the heart of Paris. I’ve always liked his sculptures, and the way they were spread among the lush grounds of the chateau was rather… French. It was a good day of exploration!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
