Trey Ratcliff

I'm a warm-hearted, old-school gentleman explorer with really cool toys.

I love taking photos. I also love post-processing photos! I have my own spin on HDR Photography, and I enjoy all kinds of visual experimentation.
Every day, I share my travel photography on StuckInCustoms.com, I tell a little story, and help people learn photography.  The site also has camera reviews, travel guides, and a growing and fun community.  Join us!
If you want to learn how to make HDR photos, visit my free HDR Tutorial -- Have fun!
Want to know even more?  I get all kinds of questions, so I built an ever-growing About Me page.

About 7 weeks ago 275 Ultra Hi-Rez Photos of New Zealand 8 months of work for you to enjoy! :) 

I'm loving the new ability on Google+ to upload my original size photos!  If you want the How-To, I updated the article at http://www.stuckincustoms.com/2013/03/21/google-now-allows-full-rez-photos/ .

I moved here about 8 months ago and have been taking photos like a man possessed!  I think about 90% of the photos in here are new ones that I taken and recently processed.  The other 10% are from my first 2 trips here that convinced me to make the move! :)  Anyway, enjoy...

About 2 weeks ago The Ruins of Queenstown in the Autumn

Yesterday, I went out to get some photos of the Autumn near my house and took this photo.  This spot is about three minutes away in an area between Queenstown and Arrowtown.  These amazing ruins were just back behind some trees off Speargrass Flats road.  I had seen the hints of some structures back there, but I was not sure until I went back to investigate...  so awesome!

About 11 weeks ago Taking a picnic to the little island

Here's another new photo from New Zealand.  This place is in a valley between Queenstown and Arrowtown.  There are about 100 little lakes scattered around... most of them are picturesque and serene... like this one with a little wooden bridge that goes out to a tiny island.

About 1 week ago The New Vertical Awesomeness of Google+

Are you also enjoying the portrait-orientation in the new column layout?  I love it.  I also love the multiple columns... I'm able to see a lot more photos at once -- so convenient and fun!  Did any of you switch back to the one-column view?   I see +Tom Anderson also likes the vertical orientation and he just posted one of my favorite photos ever!  I talked about this with +Thomas Hawk too in person -- he's also a big fan of this orientation.

This photo is of the Aurora Australis in New Zealand.  People ask if it is multiple photos... nope, just one exposure, but yes, post-processing was involved, unapologetically.
