Corona spots on Azure Bubble

First time I've noticed white spots running from corona to corona! That's one for the physicists or optics experts. I haven't a clue why it happens. I just take the pictures.

 

This is my first serious bubble upload of 2010. I've got some bubble ideas lined up for this year, but I'm just getting my eye in first, and getting used to my new 50mm lens. When the sun came out at the start of last year I thought I knew all there was to know about bubbles, but then popping came along and I learned more about light and image quality too. Always surprises!

 

This year I'll be experimenting with different bubble mixtures. This one is with Supapop, as used and sold by Samsam Bubbleman. It's tough, very strong. I was a bit suspicious of it to start with because it smells very much like washing up liquid. It works well, but it's not giving me the iridescent patterns I want. Actually very pleasant to smell the soap in the air as the bubbles pop. I even got a drip land on the bald crown of my head as a bubble popped high overhead. Gave it a rub. Hhhmm... smells good.

 

Watch this space for new bubble developments, if I can get them off the drawing board.............
