The Nest
I took this photo while I was outside another tower in the open air with Joe McNally.  It was a great time..  It was also a bit scary.For this one, I took my 28-300 and turned it upright to portrait mode and zoomed in quite tight.  I liked the way the layers of the city stacked upon one another into the distance, and that was lost in the wide-angle landscape mode.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the entire post on the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Bird’s Nest From Above I was at the top of this tower late one night in Beijing.  It’s a cool tower (I don’t have a photo of it), but it’s the kind of tower that will look awful in about 10 years.  Anyway, this photo is not about the tower.The famous Bird’s Nest stadium was spread out beneath me.  When I saw this scene, I knew I was going to shave off the top and the bottom.  The bottom was kind of interesting.  The top was dreadful.  It’s a bit painful to take a photo when I know I’m going to be cutting out so much, but I do it quite often anyway.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
