Yes, you read that right. My lens… my wonderful 50mm lens.. is gone. Smashed. Not on purpose (as my hubby assumed when I told him the devastating news..) but it happened in a tragic way. See, I was attempting to take some pictures of Porter and I, which was a difficult task in itself to try to get the focus correct and get the baby to cooperate. Afterwards, I took my camera downstairs to upload the pictures to my computer. My computer chair got caught on the USB cord and yanked my camera to the ground. I assumed it was ok, as the photos were still uploading. I only got one good picture out of the bunch (see below) and went upstairs to try to take a few more. At this point, my camera would not focus. I panicked- praying it wasn’ t my camera body that broke. I switched lenses and my other lens worked fine. As I inspected my beloved 50mm lens I noticed that it, indeed, was badly damaged and there is no saving it. I am in mourning… I am lost… I don’t know what to do without it!
The last photo taken…. just moments before its tragic death…
RIP you will be remembered with great love and admiration…


I am so sorry! What do you do with a broken lense? I would bury it or something special. LOL.
Beautiful picture! You are both beautiful!
Such a cute photo! Sad about your lens, but glad to hear you’ve already ordered a new one!
