Trey Ratcliff

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

I'm best known for, well, I suppose, this site, StuckInCustoms.com, which has become the #1 Travel Photography Blog on the internet. On average, the photos get over a million views a week, including a few from my mom. My work first became popular after I had the honor of having the first HDR photo ever to hang in the Smithsonian. After that, I was fortunate enough to be represented by Getty (who I have since dumped because they take 80%), been featured on the BBC, ABC, FOX, CBS, and NBC, and have had numerous showings around the world.

I am known generally for the unique way in which I capture and process the world around me. I have my own "take" on HDR Photography, and you can see my free <a href="http://www.stuckincustoms.com/hdr-tutorial/">HDR Tutorial</a> right here. I grew up blind in one eye and this might have changed the way I view the world. I don't know. It's hard to be objective about the way one's brain was wired. My background is in computer science and math, so I bring an algorithm-like process to capturing the scene in such a way that it evokes memories in a palpable manner. Whatever that means.
