Fishing on Oahu The rugged coasts along Oahu make for some lay-up (as Tom calls them) photos. Everything is quite rugged and dramatic. But, even if it was not for the drama of the scene, I think this fisherman is extra-dramatic! I didn’t see anything actually caught, but I would think it would be some giant dramatic fish.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Forever CoastOahu looks like such a small island on the map, but the coast seems to go on for ever and ever! We drove around the island in a counter-clockwise manner and popped out of the car from time to time.To get to this spot in particular, Tom and I had to jump over the guard rail and run out onto a little cliff. It was quite high up, so I didn’t get too close to the edge… but the high perspective helped me to aim down along the coast without needing to show the horizon.- Trey RatcliffRead the entire post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Lighthouse in Iceland The northwest fjords in Iceland have quickly become one of my favorite areas of the country. People ask me all the time, "I'm going to XXXX country, where should I go?" That is one of the reasons I created the new Stuck On Earth -- for just that purpose. Now, when you zoom into Iceland, you'll see a big collection of images up in this area. Whenever you see clusters of pins in one area versus another, you'll get the general idea that one area has more photo hotspots than another. - Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Farmhouse and Roosting Birds at Dusk I only got to stay in this magical place for one night. If you're really into birds, then you may notice a thing or two about this photo. Iceland is known for many species of birds, and you can see a bunch of them roosting back in the cliff there. - Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Big Sur Sunset Last week I promised I would reveal the photo today that I took during the video above, and here it is. I guess you can get the sense from that video how windy it was! What a crazy day... I spent all afternoon and evening getting ready for this. There was a decent amount of hiking, preparation, and walking-around to figure out the best place to stand. Maybe the bad thing about that video is showing how easy it all appears to be... in future videos, you may see some more of the problems that I face and how I deal with them. In some ways, I think that is more real than something that appears to fairy-book perfect! - Trey Ratcliff Read more and see a behind-the-scenes video of this shot here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Mighty Peaks and Soft River I'm going up again soon to the northern part of Iceland to visit some friends, and it will be great fun. This time, I'll have to convince them to come out with me on a little photo adventure... Right before you get to Akureyri, the road twists along a valley that runs beside these mountains. They are beautiful and scenic, but very difficult to photograph. You keep looking and looking and looking for an angle, and it never quite works out. I found this one by accident. There was a little side road that looked interesting. I took it, and then it almost immediately went off the side of a hill! It turns out it wasn't a side-road at all, but some kind of fake-road meant to trick dumb people like me. So, after sliding to a stop, I went out to see if my 4th wheel was dangling over the side. It wasn't, but I did see a little path that went down by the river. I thought there might be a good vantage point, so I took my rig down there to get this shot. -Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Off the PCH at Sunset Whenever I go to California lately, I have meetings in both Los Angeles and San Francisco. Rather than fly between the two, I like to take my time and drive up the Pacific Coast Highway. It's such a famous highway, but it's usually fairly empty. There is always a beautiful sunset... it's pretty much a guarantee. I popped out of my car and hiked through the brush a bit to grab this one so you can see what it looks like.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Waterfalls at Midnight I had done a little research about the southern part of Iceland before my trip, but I left enough gaps to be surprised. On this particular night, it was about 65 degrees (18 C), so it was just a tad perfect. The air was wet with moisture from an evening rainstorm, and it was held aloft by the strange weather patterns. When I first saw this waterfall, it was around midnight. By the time I got into this position, it was about 1 AM or so.Once again, I had not seen another human for hours. It was so eerie walking around these amazing places alone. Typically, with something so grandiose, you sort of expect a bunch of tourists to be lurking about. So, alone, it all feels a bit post-apocalyptic. But thanks to a ton of video games, I'm well versed with how to survive in these situations.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
