Trick or Treaters BEWARE of the house at 403 w 7th St in Sundown TX…come if you dare.

The Haunted Porch of 7th ST……thanks for coming by!!!

Well it starts with a flat tire a week ago that leads to a blowout yesterday that leads to a wonderful lovely wait at Walley World with my two boys and I wondering around looking at everything in the store.  I had my camera with me and didn’t want to let it stay in the car so it went with us on our journey…this is what it saw.  The greater good of course being these wonderful little shots.

Talk about Piggin’ Out!

Pattrick and Amanda Davis wed in Hawaii and had the party when they got back home.

If you folks at the party are looking for the gallery you’ll have to get with Delores for the link.

On Monday the 14th the summer baseball photo galleries will be gone. 90% of the summer pics are in the old gallery system. That system will be taken down come Monday.

This is the link so if you are or you know of someone that may have been putting it off to order…tell them now.

The only games that will remain online are the championship games from the different age categories and those have been relocated to the new gallery system under baseball of course.

Hey folks a little flash back post here.  Carrie Day asked me if I still had pics from the Halloween Party that they all put on in 2008.  As luck would have it I did still have a slide show up online with the shots in it.  Unfortunately the originals were lost in a PC failure…lesson learned I now have MACS!

Here is the link for the slide show.

Yeah…ok schools in and that’s great but I’m still not caught up from the summer yet.  This is a topic about the last day at the Sundown Pool and a little bit of Raymonds B-day too boot.

Birthday Boy...

You got everything from Wade doing the cannonball off the storage shed to my wife standing tall at her 5′ mark.  I even got out there sadly for the first time this year even if it was the last day it was opened.  It was a good day.

I didn’t take all of these shots but they were all taken with my camera.  These images aren’t really for sale but feel free to share them with anyone you want.  I have about 50 shots posted in my new gallery system I’ve been playing with under the Sundown Community section in the gallery menu…

That's how I feel most days!

This is a possibility...

Pure 100% boy...I can see trouble coming now!

I'd like you to meet Mr. Jimmy Gonzales

Just some High Fashion Models that flew in from New York that day

Man what a hot hot Saturday!  The Thunder on the Plains Carshow was the place to be in Levelland over the weekend without question.  I have been fortunate enough to lend a hand in building a new site for the organization to help establish a more efficient presence on the web.  As a perk to that labor I was able to take a ton of great shots of those incredible works of art called cars.  There were some amazing rides out there this weekend and some pretty cool people too boot.

This years event was by and far one of the best to be at for sure.  The result of efforts of people who asked nothing in return.  I can’t wait until net year.

Checkout a few highlights I have here in this topic now but I will have about 300+ low res files posted in the gallery on the web site for the car show: www.thunderontheplains.net

I will also have higher res files available for viewing in one of my galleries as well link here: http://steveconwayphotography.com/yourgalleries/

A fantastic idea came to Mrs. Sires to hold a makeup party for the 7th & 8th grade cheerleaders.  This party taught the girls many things; however, the most important one being “Beauty comes from within.”  At this party, girls were given an opportunity to reacquaint themselves with former friends and get to know those girls who are new to the district while enjoying delicious food.  The ladies were given advice on how to care for their skin as well as tips on how to apply their make-up where they all learned the big rule “LESS IS MORE.”  In order to capture these fun memories, before and after photos were taken.  We had some really great results in the process to boot.   Enjoy the before and after slide show and have fun with the candids taken during the party.

Well this is kinda funny.  I took my oldest son with me to San Fransisco for the 4th of July.  We did all the normal tourist stuff and as we were walking up from the bay coming through China Town I noticed something.  On a corner I saw a modern looking guy taking shots of people with his camera…of course the camera caught my eye as a brand that runs about $8000-12000.  So right away I knew I had a professional on the prowl for something unique to shoot on the 4th of July evening.  Well I pulled out my humble little Nikon and got it ready to fire…we started to cross the street headed his direction and just as we got half way across the street I readied myself for the shot.  I had him in focus as we walked towards him and I waited for him to see me and try and figure out exactly what was going on.  He was looking around waiting for his next target…and then he saw me.  He double took…and then gave me a angry eyebrow and I snapped it.  It was perfect…the Photographer got took.  He giggled and we both walked towards one another.

I showed him the shot…and he said “You got me”.

Just a funny little story I thought I’d share…

Photographer gets took...

Another shot in China Town in San Fransisco.  We were walking along and passed this alley and just as we were almost by it completely I glanced over and noticed a guy standing against the wall in a black trench coat.  I kept walking by…but then a split second later I thought about the shot in my head.  I turned around and got on one knee and took this shot.

It’s just a cool mysterious photograph to me…who is he…what is he doing there…it just raised an interest to me is all.

Mystery Man

A few others I took in San Fransisco for the memories later on…

In 2007 I took my family to Baltimore MD for the 4th of July.  We had a blast everywhere we went with all of the history in that town.

The Inner Harbor is incredible in every aspect and we also had the fortune to go to Washington DC and got some cool shots..

We had taken a dinner cruise on the harbor and as the sun was setting behind the cityscape I started to take some shots as it happened.

If you get the chance to go…do it!

These are some of the favorites of the series.
