Yosemite Valley View
My first trip to Yosemite was so fun!I've been to Yellowstone about a dozen times, so it was strange never to have a trip to Yosemite under my belt.  Yellowstone is great and everything, but it lacks a few of these "epic" scenes, if you know what I mean.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The River Wild
This is one of the rivers in Argentina that was uncrossable.I really wanted to get to the other side because I knew there were some angles.  I hiked up and down both sides trying to see if there was some way to make it happen, but it was just impossible.  Oh well!  It was a pretty walk if nothing else...- Trey RatcliffClick here to read this entire post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Gentle Rays
On my first evening in Yosemite, the sun did some amazing things. There as a big group of Google+ people converging on Yosemite, but I arrived a day early for a little "me" time. Nature must have felt my mojo because it all conspired to create some interesting results as the rays tumbled across the valley floor.

The Secret Crystal Lake
This remote lake was so icy cold.  You would think it's about 33 degrees or something, right?  It felt like absolute zero.  I dropped a little piece of my tripod in here and my hand almost froze off trying to retrieve it.In the distance you can see where the glacier comes into contact with the glassy lake; it gives a sense of the epic scale here.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Mountains Forever During the Yosemite PhotoWalk, the sky was beyond belief for the first few nights.  The second half of the trip had fairly mundane skies.  So, I was happy I went out there and got a lot of shots in the beginning!I’m often optimistic about the “future” of the trip, assuming that the sunsets will always get better and better.  This rarely is the case, so I don’t know why I’m consistently optimistic about the prospects.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Flaxen Horse at Sunrise The problem with horses in Iceland is that you can't pass a farm with them frolicking about without...wondering...hmmm...I wonder if I could get a good shot.  And then, of course, something in you tells you that Yes, of course, you could get a good shot.  And then, you have to come up with reasons not to stop at every farm and take photos of every horse, since they all come out interesting.So, naturally, this is a strange situation, in which you have to willingly force yourself to drive past something that you know would be amazing.  But, well, you do it with the low-risk gamble that you will see something else amazing a bit down the road.- Trey RatcliffThe rest of this entry and information on an upcoming photowalk is here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
Icelandic Sheepdog Here is another one of these unusual-looking horses from Iceland. When Rebekka took me out to the fjords to go shoot horses, I did not expect that the horses would be nearly so hairy. I was thinking it might have been seasonal because of the cold, but then again, I have very little business determining anything about Icelandic wildlife.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Tetons, Revisited This area is not too far from Yellowstone.  Just outside of the south exit, there is a fairly short drive to this area of Wyoming.  It's on the way to Jackson Hole.  This is also an amazing place if you are into Bison.  There are hundreds and hundred of bison in this area.  A free one was roaming about while I took this.  They're actually quite dangerous for something that looks like a giant silly stuffed animal. - Trey Ratcliff Read the rest here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Rainbow After the Storm All that's missing from this one is a unicorn.  This is one reason I am excited about genetic engineering.  I think that some odd-ball researcher is going to make a real unicorn one day...  and everyone (well, MOST everyone) will love it.  Hey future-unicorn-genetic-engineer, please contact me after you successfully bring one of these to term so I can take the first photo.  That would be very cool. - Trey Ratcliff Read the rest of this entry here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
