Fisheye in the Hotel Banke I was very happy to experiment with the fisheye lens while I was in Paris. I borrowed Tom’s, and that pushed me over the edge to buying one for myself. Prior to this, I had rented one, but never really liked it very much. I think maybe because I took a lot of people photos, and they were just tooooo artsy and weird for me (which is saying a lot), but I really found using the fisheye on architecture and things like this to be a lot of fun!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Ornate Taxi in Beijing This little taxi reminded me a bit of those crazy Burning Man cars! It parked here for just long enough for me to grab a photo. After it left, I realized that I think wanted a ride in it… but I was too busy getting lost in taking the photo to keep my wits about me.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Inside Hearst Castle It’s been a while since I’ve posted any photos from Hearst Castle, but this one stuck out to me. These rooms are so ridiculous in a way, yes? I mean, even if I had all the money in the world, I don’t think I’d ever want a room like this in my house! It’s so formal and unlivable… I prefer something a bit more comfy!- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Mysterious Places of Paris Isn’t this room amazing? It’s not in the main part of the Paris Opera House, but it had the most ornate and Inception-esque room I’ve seen in a while. I took this photo while in the middle of experimenting with the Nikon fisheye lens. It seemed to fit the bill for these ornate grand locations that are still in a relatively confined space. - Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Bizarre Necropolis in Paris My hotel was very close to the Panthéon in the Latin section of Paris, so it seemed a shame not to explore the inside. It wasn’t really what I expected.I thought I would have seen the traditional European cathedral stylings that are always so familiar and pretty. I never get tired of those, but the Panthéon was a curious collection of strange crypts, giant pendulums, and other assorted agnostic items.The necropolis holds the remains of Voltaire, Rousseau, Victor Hugo, and Emile Zola, among others.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Secret Church Who would have ever guessed that this immense, classically architected church is in the middle of Chicago, Il? It's quite amazing, isn't it?My friend Fiona took me here around the time of the Chicago book launch party. It is a great place place for all kinds of HDR photography. - Trey Ratcliff Read the rest here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Royal Entrance It took me a long time to get this shot right. In fact, in the upcoming HDR DVD, I try to work on another version of this -- a vertical one. No matter what I did, I could not get it quite sharp enough because of some camera shake. This one turned out okay.This is one of the entry hallways into the amazing Venetian hotel in Las Vegas. Feel free, as with all the photos, to zoom into the maximum resolution version on SmugMug. And yes, I still think SmugMug is very cool and am still using it after three months. For more info, see my SmugMug Review.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Notre Dame of Lyon This is the interior of the Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvre. It is probably the most lavish and beautiful cathedral I have ever been inside. It beats the other Notre Dame in Paris by a mile. I’ve never been in the Sistine Chapel, which is probably more lavish. I was going to visit it on my last trip to Rome but the Pope died the day I was there… so that one was… busy.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
