San Francisco Cemetery
Right after I got into San Francisco, I went into the YouTube offices for a meeting.  Their offices were quite cool!  It wasn't entirely what I was expecting, but I don't know what I was expecting.  The team there was nice and welcoming, and they were already fans, so that made it easy.Anyway, after the meeting, I went across the street (literally a 10 min walk!) over to this old cemetery that had charming trees scattered about.  I was just in time for the sunset...- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this entry on the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Gentle Rays
On my first evening in Yosemite, the sun did some amazing things. There as a big group of Google+ people converging on Yosemite, but I arrived a day early for a little "me" time. Nature must have felt my mojo because it all conspired to create some interesting results as the rays tumbled across the valley floor.

The TWIT Network Mothership Table The studio is cool because they have a number of different "sets" there for different shows.  This is the main round table where Leo Laporte does some of his biggest shows, like This Week in Tech, MacBreak Weekly, This Week in Google, and many others.  He lets anyone in the area come sit in as a guest to watch the live production... and that's a lot of fun too because of all the geeky equipment around.On this particular day, my mom came to sit in the audience (after she got lost and needed Tony to go rescue her!).  She brought a load of fudge with her and made everyone happy... she even got a hug from Leo :)- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post, including info on tonight's show, at the Stuck in Customs blog.
TWIT Studio Several weeks ago I went to Petaluma to visit Leo to be on his show with Catherine Hall.  We all had a great time together, as usual.  I arrived beforehand to take a few photos of the studio while he was filming MacBreak Weekly with Alex Lindsey and Andy Ihnatko (another show worthy of a podcast subscription).  Here’s the first one I wanted to share with you all.And get ready for an amazing show for Trey’s Variety Hour #20 tomorrow night… I’m planning something special!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Mountains Forever During the Yosemite PhotoWalk, the sky was beyond belief for the first few nights.  The second half of the trip had fairly mundane skies.  So, I was happy I went out there and got a lot of shots in the beginning!I’m often optimistic about the “future” of the trip, assuming that the sunsets will always get better and better.  This rarely is the case, so I don’t know why I’m consistently optimistic about the prospects.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Darkness in the City Sometimes the art gets a little bit dark, yes?  These moods are kind of good and kind of fun... and productive in a few different ways.I found this location through Stuck on Earth.  We have a Top 50 Secret Spots list in the app from my friend Thomas Hawk.  It got me a great shot looking in the other direction.  But then, I very simply turned around and saw this out the other window!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest and see a video of a recent Stuck on Earth Hangout at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Yosemite Valley
This was my first trip to Yosemite ever, so I was pretty excited.  I've been to Yellowstone about a dozen times, but this has always been a blank spot for me.  It was a great trip and we had all sorts there from the Google+ PhotoWalk.The first evening there had a nice set of pinks and some vermillion reflections that cascaded down the valley.  Subsequent days had me traveling all the way down the valley to see all the same mountains from a variety of perspectives.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read more at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Electric LA at Night I took this a few nights ago in Los Angeles. I’ve always wanted to get a good shot of the downtown action, and Stuck On Earth helped me get it.Luckily, I saw a few hints of this kind of a shot from other photographers that had geotagged shots in the area. I went out there with Tom Anderson and we spent a few hours exploring the area. We got countless great shots and this was the first one I processed.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Alcatraz in the Dusk
Today's photo was taken recently in San Francisco.  That tower you see there in the mid-distance is Coit Tower.  Just beyond that, in the middle of the bay, you can see Alcatraz.

I've never made it out to Alcatraz to take photos, but it is on my list.  I wonder how much freedom (!) I would have out there to roam around with my tripod.  Have any of you gotten out there?
