50-50-50 Challenge and Mosaic Monday

Yesterday, I participated in a 50-50-50 Challenge.
The premise of the challenge - 50 Pictures, using a 50mm lens, on Day 50 of the year.
You guessed it - yesterday was Day 50 of this year.

I had been using my 50mm lens pretty exclusively until two weeks ago when I needed a lens with a little more reach. You know what happens when a lens goes on the camera - it tends to stay on the camera! So I pulled out the 50mm lens again.

As a matter of full disclosure, I actually only yielded 34 "decent" pictures yesterday. I actually grew a little weary of trying to figure out "what I would take a picture of next". I figure 34 pictures is fine.

For Mosaic Monday, I picked five pictures from the collection:
Mosiac Monday - Transitions
What started out as a chilly morning warmed up to a very nice, almost spring like day. Most of the snow that covered the area just a week ago has melted and small signs of spring are in the air.

To see the entire collection of photos I took for the 50-50-50 Challenge, here is the link to the Set on Flickr: To get a glimpse of the other participant's photos, you can also check out the 50-50-50 Flickr Group.


Mosaic Monday is Hosted by Mary at this Little Red House. You can check out the other mosaics there.

  4. Hi Shirley! I've been a quiet follower for a while now, enjoying your pictures and reflections. You took some pictures of my home town for your 50-50-50 Challenge, so I thought it was about time I made a comment! Thank you for sharing your passion for photography as well as all of your lovely pictures. I look forward to more!
