The Inner Museum This is the Capital Museum in Beijing, and it houses some famous and exquisite pieces.  Many of the works were still incomprehensible to me, but it's nice how there seems to be an international feeling of beauty around different objects.  The lighting was very unique in here, and the layout made for a challenging shoot.  Of course I did use a tripod here...I'm not sure it is possible to capture it otherwise.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Frozen Granite Getting to this spot in Glacier National Park wasn't easy.  It was even tougher trying to get Ethan and Tina into the exact spot too.  Even though this area had all this cool granite around it, there was a bit of a swamp there that we had to traverse first.  And, just around the corner was a nice sandy beach!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Exploring Kyoto at Night I think I could stay in Kyoto for a few years and go out taking photos every day and night! What a picturesque place… I feel like someone designed it a thousand years ago just for HDR! Now, I think this is a pretty darned good example of HDR. When you are there, you do see all these colors and light levels. Absolutely! Thank goodness for the sweet lady HDR and all her little tricks.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Timeless Tomb The Taj Mahal is an awesome place. I spent the day taking photos of the place, and I was dog-tired when it was all done.  Plus, my feet were hella dirty.  You have to take off your shoes there.  It turned out, actually, to keep me pretty cool.  It was a very hot day; the marble was nice and cool on my feet.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Lost Hindu Temple in the Jungle Mist If you want to see how I made this (and how you can too!), visit my HDR Tutorial.  I hope it gives you some new tricks!I took an afternoon hike in the remote area of Java just outside the town of Jogjakarta to explore this temple.  It's called Prambanan, and it was built around 850 CE.The rain was pouring down, which left me and Will there pretty much alone, except for a few wild deer in the area.  I waited through the rain because I knew if it cleared there would be a great sunset.  I had a little baggy over my camera to keep it dry until everything passed...While waiting on the rain to stop, I walked around and did more up close exploration of the temples of Vishnu, Shiva, and Brahma, which were three of the largest in the complex.  All the temple blocks were on the edge of collapse, after many centuries of Indonesian earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
