I should have gotten some strawberries to drop in the glasses of bubbly...lol
I've been meaning to have a go at photographing soap bubbles for ages. It's surprisingly difficult if you don't have anyone to assist with blowing the bubbles.
We're Here: Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles.
Here is my lovely sister blowing bubbles at West Coast Park. Have a wonderful day!
I was sick with a fever yesterday, but I'll be catching up on your streams today :)
Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.
Today I attended a wedding of a friend. She and her partner have been together 20 years but decided to tie the knot in a lovely Irish inspired wedding at a Silvan farm. Although the rain came down we were warm and happy celebrating the love of our friends. This is a deliberate ICM photo of the bubbles and golden glow of the reception area.
My friend S had to leave the reception early. She will have a funeral to organise tomorrow. Sad but her mother, 94 years of age passed peacefully with family having been beside her for the last week.

I didn't do a very good job in capturing the ice bubbbles. I'm sure some of it is my skill level combined with the conditions I had to work with, but those who know the lake are saying that this is a bad year for bubbles. It was a very strange freeze this year.
The bubbles are caused by pockets of methane rising from the lake bottom.
I think the light scattered from the little bubble does something weird like reflect back through the big bubble. Whatever it is, it looks like Christmas tree lights to me. You see it? On the main tree!
These lights remind me of Disney fairy dust. Does anyone remember the way magical fairy dust would sprinkle off of the fairy's wand? Maybe it was a Disney title sequence. Tinkerbell's fairy dust!

I've never grown too old enjoy bubbles, and I've never had the opportunity to shoot them before. Found this chap whilst on a walk down the River Thames. I love the colours and how some of the buildings are visible in the reflections! (If you look closely!)
