Terry Mayer Photography When I was 7 years old, I had the lucky opportunity to travel to Mount Rushmore with my grandparents. Air Force jet during refueling runs.

Before we left on our journey, my grandmothers gave me a camera.

“Take some photos when you are there!”

As is typical at tourist attractions, everyone stood at the edge of the guardrail, carefully focusing and framing the scene of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial that lay before them in their camera’s viewfinders. Although I was only 7, I distinctly remember thinking I want to photograph som

ething different. Being the adventurous kid that I was, I climbed up on the guardrail and took a photo of the reflection of the memorial in the gift shop window. When we returned home from the trip and everyone’s film had been developed, it was obvious my image was different from everyone else’s. I’ve been passionate about capturing the unique view ever since. Photojournalism has given me some great experiences in life. I have documented humanitarian efforts to build a school in Honduras and have been able to show readers an insider’s view of a U.S. I have photographed people from all walks of life including U2’s Bono and Paul McCartney, a U.S. president and even a man who built a museum honoring Hitler. And, of course, I have also focused my camera on my family and the events that have unfolded in their lives. As a photojournalist, I cover sports, features, spot news and illustrations. The subject matter changes daily but my goal doesn’t: to find a way to show the story in a unique way that inspires the readers.

January 27, 2025 Photo 27 “1939 John Deere H” Upon returning to the front of the tractor, my attention was drawn to the grille, where a bolt securing it was partially concealed yet distinctly visible. The photo effectively guides the viewer's eye to this feature. Overall, I was pleased with the cohesive composition.

“1939 John Deere H”
Although much of the snow has melted off the tractor, I discovered frost in the shadows on the front tires. The frost was disappearing quickly once the sunshine started to warm it up. The left side of the photo still has frost and is offset by the yellow hub of the front tire, creating an appearance of two separate photographs.

As I stepped out of the house, the sky's vibrant blue hue evoked the quintessential winter atmosphere. Characterized by deep tones and shadows, the sky's darkness was tempered by the gentle glow of the setting sun, lending the photograph a distinctly cooler ambiance.

Following a thorough inspection of the tractor today, I drew attention to a bolt situated on the hood. The bolt, partially embedded in the snow, with the snow curving over it, presented a pleasing aesthetic.

With the rise in temperature today, I was able to create a short video on the preceding post. My selection of this image was inspired by the comparison between paint flakes and snowflakes, which I found amusing. This photograph depicts the hood of the tractor, where snow had accumulated.

In light of the continued cold weather, I promptly photographed the tractor, focusing on the tires. This image features the left tire, illustrating the worn and cracked base. A slight yet discernible accumulation of heavy frost was visible within the cracks, where sunlight was blocked. Having quickly captured the desired photograph, I returned indoors to escape the cold.

Given the chilly conditions, again, I opted to ponder my photo objectives from the warmth indoors. I briefly ventured outside to take a photo of the tractor and then swiftly returned to the comfort of being indoors. This particular photograph highlights the left front grille screen, and looks towards the rear of the tractor, showcasing the hand start flywheel and clutch pedal.

“1939 John Deere H”
In all candor, today's photograph was taken expeditiously of the tractor. Due to the cold weather, I endeavored to minimize my time outdoors. Typically, I conduct a thorough examination of the tractor to identify optimal photographic opportunities. However, today I prioritized capturing the steering wheel. I rapidly composed the shot and returned indoors, completing the process within approximately two minutes.

“1939 John Deere H” The tractor is indeed present in the photo, but my principal focus was on the stunning sunset unfolding in the background. The John Deere name is visible on the front of the tractor, near the exhaust stack, which appears slightly tilted and in the shadows , providing a striking juxtaposition to the kaleidoscopic backdrop.

This image features the 7-hole rim of the tractor's rear 9.5 x 32 tire, equipped with an axle designed for dual tire configuration. The axle provides a visual line, guiding the viewer's gaze from the foreground to the background, where the faded yellow rim is prominently displayed.

It was great to see the sun today, despite the cold temperatures. The photograph I took was uncomplicated, highlighting the steering wheel. The contrast of clouds in the sky led me to present this image in black and white, which seemed suitable.

“1939 John Deere H” Today's photographs feature snowflakes and frost on the tractor, rather than ice. This image offers a direct view down the front of the tractor, highlighting the front hitch and the visible hole that leads to the front tires.

January 13, 2025 Photo 13 “1939 John Deere H” Another photograph showcasing ice is provided, distinguished by the process of melting and subsequent reformation. The entrapment of air bubbles within the ice results in a diminished textural contrast. The transparency of the ice, in conjunction with the exposed frame of the tractor, generates a singular visual impression. The rust and green colors remain visible in the image.

“1939 John Deere H” I discovered another icicle today, located just under the crankcase. This photograph features several appealing elements. The colors seem to merge, combining with the texture of the paint's cracks. A small, clear icicle on the cap's end exhibits a smooth texture, contrasting with the surrounding colors and textures.
