Title: Center of House.Another fisheye shot from my Canon EOS 5D Mark III with the EF 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye lens. I really like the perspective that this one gives, not only just on the stage and performers - but also the audience watching the performance.

Title: Pouring It On.One of my favorite shots from a recent city profile done on J. Gardella’s Tavern, located in downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan. I owe a lot to knowing my settings, timing, light via an off camera flash, and good karma from the camera karma Gods… as this one came out on the first try!

Title: Blowing One’s Horn.I’ve been really into my portraits being to either a far left or far right of the composition… if I had to guess why I’d say it’s probably due to the amount of portraits I’ve done lately for design/print/ad publications.Having said that… I kinda like how it looks.

Title: Eric Daigh.I guess you could say that Eric Daigh’s TEDxGrandRapids speech was a touch controversial… but hello, what do you expect when you ask a creative to talk to an audience. Having said that - I for one ENJOYED what he had to say, and pretty much agreed with everything that came out of his mouth to the visual “FUCK YOU” that graced overhead screen. At the end of the day… I enjoyed it.

Title: Fred Keller.Part of my involvement in TEDxGrandRapids is capturing the speakers when they are on stage. So today I thought I’d share a portrait of Fred Keller from TEDxGrandRapids 2013… his speech was met with a standing ovation and his words hit home.Fred is a man of words, action and compassion and leads GR with a strong focus on philanthropy. He rocked the house and is such an amazing person, way to represent Mr. Keller!

Title: 1977 PUCH MAXI. What does one do to offset a pending Mid-Life Crisis? Well in Terryland we join a moped gang (the Grand Rapids Ghost Riders) and buy a 1977 PUCH MAXI that will be fully pimped out and customized! She might be red now… but soon she will be transformed with the powers of pink powder coat, a excessive amount of chrome, white/black bits of accents, longer seat and 5-star spoke wheels. So yeah, this ‘mo went all out… and yes, there will be photos of the entire process!
