So much for the 6 inches of snow....
For a period of time, I was taking my camera everywhere I went and would run the same lens for a few weeks at a time so I could focus more on just "getting the shot" and not worry about gear so much. As an added benefit of just shooting primes during this period, I got to the point now where I can look at any given scene and visualize what it would look like at any particular focal length. This has helped me a lot with composition and if you have primes in your camera bag, I suggest you run just one prime lens for a week (or more) so that you can really understand the lens inside and out. Also, try to shoot everything from portraits to landscapes and see what kind of interesting compositions you can come up with. It's a very good exercise and I think you will benefit greatly from it.
I was on my way home from work and had my camera equipped with a 50mm prime lens to get this fleeting scene of a passenger getting ready to board the light rail. I shot exclusively at 50mm for a month to get a better understanding of how the lens handled as well as what situations it would be best suited for. What I learned is that the 50mm focal length was quite versatile and could be used in a variety of situations which is probably the reason why this focal length is popular.
