Somewhere out There

Daily Photo – Somewhere Out There…

… is my 360 camera. Lost it in NYC last time I was there. I say lost it… it’s complicated but my intentions were good.

Weekend Stream 5th April

It’s that time of the week(end) again!

Storyboarding

Here’s one from a new series I’m working on… I’m also working on using these as storyboards for creating little, short films for some storytelling. I’d love to have a world like this as a tableau for some really weird short stories… many many ideas. Anyway, obviously having fun with AI. Check out my AI insta here. 🙂

Queenstown Aiutumn

Queenstown, New Zealand in the Autumn… well this is kinda true and kinda not because these are all made with AI. I often use the phrase “in the style of Trey Ratcliff” at the end of the prompts. It’s so fun! Believe it or not, I do actually still take actual photos 🙂 See more from this series over on my Facebook.

Aoraki Bound

Daily Photo – Aoraki Bound

Here’s a photo I got on the way to Mt. Cook/Aoraki, which is only a few hours from Queenstown. It’s one of the new stops we’re gonna do on the upcoming NZ Photo Adventure workshop happening soon!

Daily Photo – A Smile

There are so many art pieces at Burning Man that inspire me, and this was a simple and beautiful one with a serene smile.

A Sunday in Iceland

Daily Photo – A Sunday in Iceland

This is a really nice little church by a graveyard in the south of Iceland. It was pretty much out in the middle of nowhere, as you can tell. The gate with the cross on the top leads to a tiny and lonely graveyard.

Dusseldorf Architecture

Daily Photo – Dusseldorf Architecture

I love these creative buildings where architects push things into all sorts of weird shapes that don’t seem like they should stand.

Yellowstone Fog

Daily Photo – Yellowstone Fog

At one point when driving through Yellowstone, I randomly got out of the car and started walking right into the forest on the edge of the road. There was a thick fog, and the morning sun was low, creating an unexpected box of light. I kept walking and walking until I found this area. It just felt right for whatever reason, so I set up to create this in HDR.
