I shook up my bottle of dish detergent and took a macro of the bubbles sliding down the inside of the bottle.

Bubbles theme

Bubbles Prelude

#sliderssunday

Tomorrow's Macro Mondays theme is "Bubbles". Back in May 2021, I had experimented with photographing soap bubble planets for the theme "Soap". Back then, I had four nice-looking, usable images of rainbow planets in the end, and I've always wanted to upload the other three photos, one at a time, "peu à peu", but somehow, I never got around to doing so. But what better opportunity to present one of these "outtakes" is there than the eve of another "bubbly" theme. So here it is: rainbow planet No. 2 :) Duly overprocessed for Sliders Sunday with several mask layers in Lightroom and some extra vibrancy added in Color Efex with the "Reflector Efex" filter.

You can find a link to my original "Soap" theme photo in the first comment. If you are interested in how to photograph soap bubble planets, you'll also find links to a few tutorials in the description of that first bubble planet photo.

I will try and take some new bubbles for tomorrow's "Bubbles" MM theme, let's see if I can come up with anything nice, if not, I'll skip ;) Wishing you a lovely first Sunday of Advent and Happy Sliders Sunday, dear Flickr friends!

Abstract combination of color and bubbles.

For 'Looking Close on Friday' the theme is 'Bubbles'

Dreams are like bubbles, they come in amazing forms; some colourful while others gigantic. Like bubbles, many burst soon after they are formed, yet there are those that last and while they do, give pleasures to those that chase after it. How do you treat your dreams? Do you burst it or do you chase after it?

Some summer fun with bubbles on the farm.

Bubble Spiral is a part of a series of spirals created in Ultrafractal 6. . This spiral was created using a brighter color, but I realized it looked a lot better when it was desaturated!

an experiment with soap-bubbles. It's only a 'first try'

Though it appears ready to topple over the side of the mountain, Bubble Rock is a very secure fixture in Acadia National Park, Maine.

Carried here from 20 miles away by a glacier during the last ice age, Bubble Rock is known as a glacial erratic. Rounded by tumbling in the glacial ice, it's easy to see that it rests on bedrock of entirely different material.

Eagle Lake, seen to the middle left in this image, is the largest fresh water lake on Mount Desert Island and in the National Park. Also formed by glacial activity, the lake reaches 110' at its deepest point.

Now freeze the bubbles in the cold weather

"To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."

Henri Cartier-Bresson

Capturing the zooming colors flying across the surface of a soap bubble is a terrific way to make your heart skip a beat.

I always thought water boiling in a pan a bit boring but it does make quite a funky abstract.
