Girls 3A Regionals Shallowater vs. Walls 2-26-10
Feb 27th
This has to have been to most emotionally charged game packed with excitement, joy and disappointment that I have ever been witness to. To watch Shallowater fall behind by as much as 12 points in the first half to then come back to a 8 point trail in the end of the 3rd period and bring it into overtime just amazed me. The unfortunate conclusion of the game not being in favor of Shallowater just stuns me even now. It was their game to have and it just didn’t happen.
“Shallowater Fillies…you rock! You have some of the largest spirits I’ve seen court side to date. To Wall…you deserve exactly what you got as you fought hard and then harder to pull your win off…hats off to you girls. Both of you.”
Shallowater you need to thank Mrs. Whitten for having me cover this event for you. I know it’s that last game for some of these girls but that is exactly why you need to thank her. You wouldn’t have these images and memories to grab and hang on to without her.

Lobos vs. Wildcats Practice Levelland and Idaou Varisty Boys Playoffs 2-19-10
Feb 19th
Well I couldn’t pass up the chance to shoot either of these team in the Dome in Levelland so I postponed my XBOX night with the guys a little bit to go. Glad I could get some good shots of Idalou this season for BBall as they had a slew of shots from the football season. Awesome to see both of these teams running in the Playoffs. Hats’ off to both of ya!!!
I put a small gallery up in the Basketball section for 2010.
Silver Clouds over Sundown
Feb 17th
If you didn’t look because you were too tired from work and just went inside to end your day I looked for ya! The clouds were really really cool yesterday. They were even cooler a few minutes before I took this but I had to go et my camera and things changed a little by the time I got back out. Awesome works of arts God…you rock!
The Power of Photoshop
Feb 17th
Man I just had to put this one up again as an example to folks out there that you can’t just take a picture out of the camera and have it be a good shot most of the time. You gotta work it! This was a portrait session I did for my wife and her sister at Christmas 2008 and I love to use it as the example of what Photoshop can do for a image if used in the right way. Between the hair over all tones, skin and eyes I think I had about 15 layers in Photoshop this image maybe more.
College Basketball SPC Texans and Lady Texans vs. Odessa 2-15-10
Feb 16th
My first venue into the Texans home court in Levelland at SPC. Gotta give props to the lighting in the place…it’s pretty good I still added a little of my own but not much. Hats off to the Texans and Lady Texans for putting up a good fight…
Thanks you to SPC for allowing me to come in and shoot the event…hope I can come again sometime.

You guys freakin’ rocked! I don’t remember seeing you guys play as hard and as well as a team as you did this night.

You drive by it and never notice…
Feb 6th
Look around you folks…God has so many wonderful things for us to see in the world if we just take the time to notice. We drive by things and never take a second look to often of those beautiful scene’s He has put before us to hang up on our mental walls…you just have to slow down a little bit and let yourself notice them or better yet force yourself. Some people just see a dead cut harvest field with a old beat up farm house in the background…I see it and say where is my camera I have to have that shot. Shoot it now folks…it may not be there tomorrow!

Images By Moonlight Jan 30th 2010
Jan 30th
20 degrees…snow and ice everywhere. I’m layered up in 2 shirts a pullover and my jacket along with PJ pants under my jeans my wool socks hat and gloves just to give me an edge. I do this encouraged by my buddy Don Carpenter seeing as the moon was it’s brightest this morning that it ever will be for a long time to come. I went out with no idea of what I’d find but I did have in mind I wasn’t going to look for shots with the moon in them…not directly anyway. I concluded my trip around 3am to head home and see what I got…enjoy folks.
Some of these images will be in my STOCK GALLERY on the main site if you see something you like and might want a print for yourself.

New Year New Site
Jan 18th
Check out the new site http://steveconwayphotography.com
Well I did it…
I never thought I would actual do a flash driven site but I did. The BLOG is no longer the main home page for me now. The new site has the splash page with a few links right on it to take you into the new main site…the BLOG…or directly into the sports gallery. This should make things easier for all.
Things that won’t change is the separate gallery site for most sports coverage.
Personal sessions will be in the Client section of the new site accessible only by those with the passwords.
So go checkout the new site for me…it’s mostly done but I do need to still work on it a little.
New Card for a New Year
Jan 15th
Well in my success with photography I have apparently stereo typed myself unintentionally as a strictly sports shooter. I can be just a sports shooter but seeing as my family depends upon my business to pay the bills I need to do more of everything. I have a ton of field equipment including portable studio lights, batteries for being in the middle of no where, bouncers diffusers stands remotes you name it…all of which I can not use while shooting sports. I’m hoping the new style of cards I will be producing for this year will open up those doors for more Personal Portraits…Senior Portraits…Family Sessions…Children and more.

I revised this contest because I didn’t think 13 hours of notice was enough!
This is easy folks free stuff for your network connections! It’s worth signing up for a Twitter account even if you don’t have one now.
If I have 100 followers on my new Twitter account that I opened up yesterday by midnight Jan 3rd 2010 I will randomly give away a full photo session with all images on a CD to a local follower in our area.
No strings attached just a simple giveaway that’s all there is to it.
My business is based upon and around people and networking with people is very important for my business.
My Twitter: http://twitter.com/STCPhotos
Recap to just be clear:
1. With 100 followers on my Twitter account verified by midnight Jan 3rd 2010 – I give away a full photo session with images on a CD.
2. With 150 followers on my Twitter account verified by Midnight Jan 4th 2010 – I will give away another full photo session with images on a CD.
3. If neither contest is fulfilled I will still give away a full session without images without any obligations to purchase anything afterward for the winner.
The giveaways will be random and limited to the list of followers on My new Twitter account only. The winners must be local in our area and if one is not a redraw will be in place until one is drawn that is.
And one more thing to throw into the fire..
If you folks surprise me and by the end of the day Jan 4th 2010 you have managed to achieve a following of 200 or more I will add to the giveaways listed above a free Premium 16×20 print of their choice to the winners.
