Default Prepare to be gobsmacked!

I'm serious, this guy, "Stuck in Customs" Trey Ratcliff has a superset of 100 of his best. If you aren't really gobsmacked by his keen eye and processing then feel for your pulse.

Beware - some images are heavilly processed (by the standards of some) but do take note of (a) what he does with colors and (b) the time of day many of his photographs are taken.

The slideshow takes a while, but I guarantee it's worth it - or your money back

Prepare to be jealous: Top 100 - Your Superset of Faves!

Wow, these are some Amazing shots! Some are pretty heavily processed, but he did it very tastefully. I think they fit the images very very well. And I really like #8, the sunset on the beach, great view there *waiting for a smack on the back of the head from the fiance*

Thanks for posting Bruce

I'm definitely going to be reading up on his HDR tutorial as well. Make sure you click "Show Info" on the pictures. I paused the slideshow so I could read through each one. He talks a lot about each of his shots

Wow, definitely gobsmacked. A bit more processed than I would prefer myself but they are definitely stunning shots. I think I will have to put Iceland on my bucket list.

Wow that is amazing. Inspirational and yet it's thoroughly depressed me! Hahaha. How do you get to be that bloody good? I can't see achieving anything near that in my lifetime! Oh well, I'll keep plodding along with my little snapshots in my pity party.
