I uploaded the cropped version of this a week or two ago. But I was just looking through my photos and I realized I like this one more. If I was to put one on my wall it would be this one. It feels more relaxed, having space and trees around it.
A single bubble caught during the annual Newmindspace Bubble Battle last weekend.

If you've seen the Pixar movie Finding Nemo, you might remember the very yellow fish obsessing over the bubbles escaping the treasure chest in his tank. That was Bubbles, a yellow tang (Zebrasoma flavescens), also known as the somber surgeounfish.
This specimen was a bit less hyper in its tank at the Haga Ocean butterfly house, but I was still pleasantly surprised at how sharp I managed to catch it in the not at all brightly lit aquarioum section.
From under a hat made of plastic cups, a marcher shoots a stream of soap bubbles with which I will conclude my posting of images from the 2015 Halloween Parade.
During our mini summer (in Winter) I saw this family enjoying some larger than life bubbles along with lake front in Zurich.
Mo is curious about these bubbles in this water bottle.
Mo : Bubbly....Ehehehehe.....

This what I got for today guys. Quick & easy. This is my sister's ugly PPG Bubbles replica-lol. She asked me to take the photo on her left side because its her "best side."

Anywho guys, I got to run. Have a meeting in an hour so I'll be back later, if not, tomorrow to check out your photos and comment :)
I bought one of these for the kiddos I nanny for but when I opened it and saw it matched my farmers' market stand, I HAD to keep it! They were really sad that I "stole" their bubble machine so we had to go buy another turbo bubble machine!
I've seen much Cuckoo spit but have never previously noticed water droplets before
This frothy foam seems to be all over plants and grass at this time of year,
Cuckoo spit is essentially plant sap that has been ingested by the creature that hides inside it. The creature forces air into the fluid it has ingested and then squeezes the bubbles out through its bum!
To discover what creates these foamy bubbles, simply find a blob of cuckoo spit, crouch down next to it and very delicately swipe it onto your finger. Keep carefully rubbing the bubbles away and you’ll soon discover a tiny little creature that looks something like a green grass seed. Look closer, however, and you’ll notice legs and the black pin-pricks of eyes: it’s a froghopper nymph!
The froghopper nymph is the larva of the adult common froghopper, otherwise known as a ‘spittlebug’. Common froghoppers are small, brown insects (only around 6mm long) that can jump incredible distances to escape threats. In fact, these insects can accelerate to more than 14km per hour in just a millisecond, and a froghopper jump has been recorded as high as 70cm. That’s similar to a human jumping over a tower block.
The jumping ability of spittlebugs means they can very easily evade predators, but their larvae can’t jump. This is where cuckoo spit on plants comes in – the froghopper nymphs use the bubbles they excrete to not only keep moist, but hide themselves from anything that might want to eat them.
