These bubbles persisted for many hours in this glass vase, as if frozen. Some sort of weird chemical reaction!
My SNOT version of the bubble cockpit featured in many of the original Blacktron II sets. The pilot is connected to the bottom of the cockpit by two 1x1 bricks with stud on one side.
Approximately 100 people showed up today to celebrate the spirit of Vancouver and the Library - and to blow bubbles.
Cabin fever is setting in. Now I'm trying to blow bubbles out in the cold. Not as easy as one thinks.
This pretty feather landed on my glass of water ! Just thought it looked so lovely with the fizzy bubbles dancing beneath...
wishing one and all a happy and restful weekend xx

ARDERN HOPES KIWIS WILL MAKE PUBLIC TRANSPORT MASK WEARING 'NEW NORMAL' AS MANDATORY RULE REMAINS
Source: 1 NEWS, 22/2/2021
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern this afternoon announced that Cabinet has decided to continue to make face coverings mandatory on all public transport, across all of New Zealand and regardless of Covid-19 alert levels.
It comes as Auckland will join the rest of New Zealand at Alert Level 1 at 11.59 tonight.
Ardern re-iterated some of the public transport face mask requirements at this afternoon's press conference.
"In small passenger vehicles such as taxis and Ubers, all drivers must wear a face mask, not mandatory for passengers but encouraged to do so," she said.
"People will be allowed to remove their face masks to eat, drink or take medication on public transport journeys if eating and drinking is allowed on the public transport."
In terms of exemptions, children under 12 and those who have a medical reason for not wearing a mask are not required to wear them.
"Drivers cannot stop people from boarding public transport who are not wearing a face covering as some people will have legitimate reasons not to. However, they will encourage members of the public to wear them," Ardern said.
She again reminded people to be kind to public transport workers, who are just doing their jobs.
"Aucklanders have already been wearing face masks on public transport since late last year and I hope we can make it a part of normal life."
Ardern says the order will be kept under review as vaccines are rolled out and may be updated at a later date.

MANDATORY MASKS ON PUBLIC TRANSPORT – EXPERT REACTION
Press Release: Science Media Centre, Monday, 22 February 2021
The nationwide rules around wearing face masks on public transport at Alert Level 1 will remain in place permanently.
It comes as Auckland joins the rest of the nation at Alert Level 1 at midnight on 23 February 2021. It’s been a week since the Alert Level went up in response to community cases of COVID-19 detected in South Auckland.
The SMC asked experts to comment.
Dr Joel Rindelaub, Aerosol Chemist, University of Auckland, comments:
“I support the move to require masks on public transit across the country. Public transport involves high-risk areas where distancing from people outside your bubble is not always possible, so it is a wise move to take a cautious approach. We have MIQ facilities across the country, so it would make sense to similarly require masks on public transit across the country.
“According to the latest data we have, widespread use of masks can help reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the community, even if the masks themselves aren’t 100% effective. Wearing masks is particularly important in indoors areas where there is less air ventilation compared to outdoors. In fact, most super spreader events have happened in indoor environments. Thus, wearing masks is a very useful tool in places like public transport, where a small enclosed space with minimal air flow allows for the transfer of tiny aerosol droplets between passengers.
“Proper mask wearing is also important, especially remembering to cover the nose. Since the nasal cavity has many sites where we know the coronavirus likes to attack (ACE2 receptors), it may be a key area for infection and it could be related to loss of smell and taste that so many COVID-19 patients experience.”
Professor Shaun Hendy, University of Auckland, comments:
“Aucklanders have all been on that roller coaster again with Ashley Bloomfield this last week, so today’s announcement that we can hop off for now will come as a relief for many.
“The week started with the announcement that there were new community cases with only a weak link to the border, much like the Auckland August cluster did.
“The whole genome sequencing then told us that there was no direct link to any known case at the border, but also that we were dealing with one of the new, more transmissible variants.
“However, a massive test and trace effort quickly contained the relatively small number of secondary cases and gave reassurance that we were not looking at the edges of a much larger cluster like the one we uncovered in August.
“Given that the cluster now appears well contained and there is no evidence of any larger cluster, it is appropriate that Auckland has moved to Alert Level 1. This case has shown us that we can’t be complacent – COVID-19 will continue to surprise us – but it also shows that when our community is vigilant and our systems are working well that we do have the measure of this virus.”

26/52 ICE "Frozen bubble"
Today my sister showed me a video where the bubbles froze instantly, and I thought it was a natural wonder ♥ But since I do not have enough equipment and here it is more than 30 degrees hot, I could not take a picture of a frozen bubble real, but also wanted to recreate it, and here the result.
Maybe later try to put more color, what do you think? THE VIDEO OF THE FROZEN BUBBLES: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzeqQlP6ySk
Macro Monday - "Starts with the Letter B"
This is the surface of a soap bubble. Macro images of soap bubbles is something I've been meaning to try for ages, and this theme gave me the perfect opportunity to do so.
I've just returned from holiday so it'll take me a while to catch up on Macro Monday and my contacts, but I promise I will!
