This weeks Macro Monday entry for 'in a bottle'. Bubbles seen through the bottom of a 330ml coke bottle.

Air bubbles in my glass of water.

The way that picture turned out was a real surprise for me. I Just wanted to capture the drops on the grasses in front and I did not know this lens could make such a wonderful bokeh. Maybe I don't need my Trioplan any more ;)

In the kitchen at the dishes.

Had fun with this one. Used a tiny tube from my husbands tool box. I wanted to do a frozen bubble but it was not quite cold enough.

I was walking down Market Street today and a guy was throwing soap bubbles up into the air. I thought I would take a picture of one and just as I pressed the camera button, it burst!

Remember how excited we would be as kids when taken to a toy store. I experienced that feeling at Abraham Lake.. Running around insanely happy, utterly oblivious to the extreme cold, the harsh winds, the slippery surface beneath my feet. Suspended in blissful exhilaration that comes from finding your flow.

Had to share a vertical comp of the scene :)

Bubbles in the lake near the fountain.

I used some glasses upside down. Mixed washing up liquid, water and some glycerine. Glycerine is great as it makes the bubbles stronger and last ages. (Excellent for water drops too) . I then put my mix on top of the glass the. Used a paper straw to gently blow a bubble.

frozen blow bubbles, -10 out this morning, Looking Close...on Friday, soap bubbles

These bubbles formed in the lea of a large stone in the stream. The little ones would collect together to form bigger ones, sometimes a bigish one would come downstream and join with others. Then the largest would pop and the whole process start again.

I was on the bridge that spans the stream and if you look carefully you'll see mine and the bridge's reflection in the top left bubble!

Got up early this morning to take a couple of bubble pictures...Really much too windy for bubbles today... I am standing in front of a large brick pillar in my red pj's just to get out of the wind! You can see one of the other bubbles I blew in this bubble! THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE VIEWS, COMMENTS AND FAVS.....IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME!!!!!!

A macro view of a colorful soap bubble standing in as a planet, with a star field as a background.

Strobist/technical info:

The visible portion of the soap bubble spans about an inch. It was illuminated by a single Nikon SB900 speedlight placed 90° CL, one-foot away from and two-feet above the subject, pointing down at 45°. The speedlight was fired in Manual mode @ ½ power through a Neewer 24" x 24" soft box.

The SB900 was triggered by two PocketWizard Plus X's.

The star field was created in Gimp 2.10.

Lens: AF - S VR Zoom - Nikkor 70 - 300mm f / 4.5 - 5.6G IF - ED with 36mm extension tube attached.

I love bubble shots and now is the perfect time of year to get some. Hope you enjoy and have a happy weekend! :)

This was such a beautiful morning and the day after the shortest day. The clouds started off grey and then turned to this beautiful pink.

Part of this evening's efforts. Despite it being cold, the wind played havoc with many of my tries. Had to import frost from the freezer as there was no snow on the balcony to use as a base.

Kind of liked the colours on this, and illusion that the bubble seemed opened at the top.
