Nature Photographer Dan ConwayIt has often been said that life is what happens to you when you have everything planned. Dan experienced one of those life-changing episodes in 1994 when the diagnosis of a pituitary tumor and the necessary surgery to remove it left him facing a 50/50 chance of living the rest of his life without his sight. When Dan emerged from surgery with his vision intact, that's when "painting with light" came into his life, and took up “natural history photography” (a hobby his grandfather had introduced him to as a child). In 2000, Dan “retired” from Conway Tile Co., Inc. to fulfill his dream of working as a full-time nature photographer. The possibility of never seeing anything again increased Dan’s ability to see the beauties of nature in a way that most of us can’t (or don’t take the time to do). It shows in his photographs. They are rich in color, full of life, laced with emotion, vivid in detail, and unique in perspective. Dan’s artistic talents, graphic design abilities, and computer skills were combined to create this web site dedicated to Agua Caliente Park (which is one of my favorite parks). His images have been published in many local, state, and national publications. You may visit his personal web site at www.naturalwonders.net to see a complete listing of his services, as well as his publication credits and on-line portfolio. I hope you enjoy Dan’s photographs as much as I do! By: Karen Carter
