Windows in Paris – The Saint Chapelle I wish I could find a good wide-angle lens like this Nikon 14-24 for my Sony NEX-7. I think one is coming out in a month or so… and I’m thinking of trying out the Olympus 7-14mm (Adorama link). The NEX-7 has served me as a good camera while my D800 is getting repaired!(Edit, I’ve changed my mind and decided to wait on this new lens from Sony)- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Meditation It's sort of hard to find time to meditate nowadays, eh?  I mean, there is a lot of stuff going on.  I wonder if the old-school Buddhists would be as good at meditating if they had broadband.  It's quite easy to distract yourself online.  By the way, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for distracting yourself with the blog!  I guess I'm happy to be a source of distraction for you.And, should you find the inspiration to meditate a little, maybe this shot from Siem Reap, Cambodia will help.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Dante's Gates of Hell This is Rodin's huge famous La Porte de l"Enfer, also known as the Gates of Hell.  I found it off to the side of the Musee Rodin in Paris while I was in a tempestuous mood.  The sculpture depicts a scene from Dante's "The Inferno".  It contains over 180 of his finest sculptures.  If you look closely towards the center of the top, you can see "The Thinker", one of his most famous.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Adventuring in the Valley Argentina is gorgeous.  Have I said that before?  Doesn't it go without saying by now?You really get to know a set of mountains when you have to hike around them.  Fortunately, in the middle of these death marches, I was able to stop and drink in some of the scenery.  It took a lot longer than necessary to get to the destination, but at least I arrived with a camera full of photos.  That beautiful peak in the distance is Fitz Roy.  I was very lucky to see it, because 90% of the time it's covered with clouds.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Where Geothermal Steam Covers the Land Every time I go to Yellowstone, I see something different. There are hundreds of great locations, each one of which should be visited for at least an hour during three different times of the day.This is a new area I visited on my most recent trip there. I don't think it is always this steamy, since the air temp has to be a certain delta to the water.   I don't know why, but it's always fun to sit there and watch the boiling water.  I don't enjoy watching boiling water in my kitchen, but the sight there is always mesmerizing..   There is also the strong smell of sulfur carried through the area.  It wasn't repulsive at all, but it did give me the just-took-off-my-helmet-on-an-away-mission feeling.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Another Sunday in Iceland This is a really nice little church by a graveyard in the south of Iceland. It was pretty much out in the middle of nowhere, as you can tell. The gate with the cross on the top leads to a tiny and lonely graveyard.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
