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:
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.
Great mosaic, love the color, the texture! And the weather looks nice, too!
A fun challenge and I think you did great at 34. You've got some wonderful photos here...very creative.
Very nice! Great challenge.
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!
Beautiful! I really like all of them, but the top two corners in your mosaic are the best! What a fun challenge!
Lovely pictures! I love the little red bridge.
