Surface photometry of NGC 2950, a classic example of the SB0 type galaxy, is presented. The analysis shows that except for the rudimentary bar the galaxy closely resembles an S0 galaxy. The disk component has an exponential light curve with a central surface brightness of B(0) = 21.65 per square second of arc and a scale size of 4.3 kpc. The nucleus, bar, and disk components contain 29, 22, and 48 percent, respectively, of the light. Integral and differential colors are presented and discussed in terms of the three components mentioned above.
