en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse :

"In the chaotic inflation theory, a variant of the cosmic inflation theory, the multiverse as a whole is stretching and will continue doing so forever, but some regions of space stop stretching and form distinct bubbles, like gas pockets in a loaf of rising bread. Such bubbles are embryonic level of multiverses. Linde and Vanchurin calculated the number of these universes to be on the scale of 101010,000,000".

"Dans la théorie de l'expansion chaotique, une variante de la théorie de l'expansion cosmique, le multivers est étiré dans son ensemble et continue à le faire indéfiniment, mais certaines régions d'arrêt dans l'espace étiré forment des bulles distinctes, comme des poches de gaz dans une miche de pain qui lève. Ces bulles sont le niveau embryonnaire des multivers. Linde et Vanchurin ont calculé que le nombre de ces univers pourrait se situer à l'échelle de 101010.000.000."

Something out of the archives. Coloured water drop on a bubble.

This was one of those accidental photos that turned out better than what I'd been aiming for.

My niece Kathryn (not Kathy if you please! LOL) caught at a moment when she did not know she was being photographed. This was at a family reunion in 2004 in Oklahoma City. Someone had brought bubbles for the kids to play with. They were all playing along the side of the pavillion we had reserved for the festivities and I had a strong telephoto lens on my 35mm in the middle of the pavillion just scanning around to get candids of everyone. I closed in on the kids and just then, Kathryn stepped back into the sunlight and I knew I had a great shot if only it turned out. I am NOT professional and what I know about F stops is that they are some function on the camera I have yet to discover. I only know I shoot what I like and thank the makers for putting that lovely green A for auto on the camera LOL. She seems like she is looking at me, but she was focused on the bubbles and the pure delight of being a kid surrounded by people she knows love her. I was actually about 30 feet or so away and in the shade.

Some of you that have viewed my husband (Wade In Tulsa)'s photo stream may or may not remember this image. When he talked me into creating my own account, this and several other images that I took he removed from his stream so I can post them here.

The National Aquarium in Baltimore

Here is a selection of some Japanese bubble gum purchased from a Japanese market in Goleta, CA. Since there was a cute frog and various fruits on the labels so I got some of my Iwako erasers for the photo.

Testing the effect of a light background behind a frozen bubble. (The ice crystals don't show up as well.)

Whenever the kids are playing with bubbles I always try and get a few decent photos but it's so tricky... think this is the best bubble shot I've ever got. I can see me and H in it, lots of clouds and two fab sun flares, what more could I ask for!

I've been forever blowing Bubbles

And I just adore this image!

I have had an absolute storm with this set... A fish tank full of water and a 6mm tube through which I have been blowing bubbles! One flash, naked and just above the surface at 45 degrees triggered with a pair of RF603s. Mounted the Tamron 90mm on a jessops 2x teleconverter and wound up the aperture as tight as it would go (F90 no less!!!)

I had no Idea how frustratingly hard this would be nor how messy it could get!

I have no idea where the orange 'smoke' appeared from or what it is!!!
