Soap bubbles being blown from a tube. Nikon D3200 and 2 cheap flashguns.

 

A soap bubble is the most beautiful, most exquisite thing in nature. I wonder how much it would cost to buy a soap bubble, if there was only one in the world? - Mark Twain.

OMG! I can't believe I caught this!

 

So, there we are having a normal whale watch, when I find a small (two male) competition pod. No big deal, except the female has no interest in the two males fighting over her and decides our little yellow boat is more interesting. So while she's checking us out, her escort (the whale pictured) is still defending his spot next to her. Except WE'RE next to her. His bubble stream is certainly meant for the whale challenging him, but it ends up blasting the bottom of our boat as he passes under. Right place, right time, I suppose!

Bubbles popped quickly, but I still got some interesting fractals!

Bubbles are just one of those things you never grow out of.

Shooting something different to learn something new!

 

In my front yard water fountain.

Bubble wrap side lit. The low key effect has given this everyday packing substance a surreal and for me a fascinating feel.

After a short hiatus to sort my parts, I have returned to bring you this MOC; Bubble Girl!

 

When summer hits, the annual water wars begin in a grand city that will remain unnamed. A group of robots battle each other with their water based weapons to see who can claim the crown of Neptune this year.

Rookie robot Bubble Girl joins the war for the first time this year. Armed with her water balloon fists she is ready to take down the competition.

I bought a big flash unit last week (a Bowens 1000 pro) and I'm now experimenting with it to capture bubble surfaces. This bubble's about to pop, hence the dark circles where the liquid is thinning.

 

I should maybe try photographing a flat film instead of a sphere, as then I wouldn't have the out of focus areas. I'll try that.................

 

Although I used my Bowens lamp here, I think the sunlight has provided most of the light here.

The Isetta is an Italian-designed microcar built under license in a number of different countries, including the UK. Because of its egg shape and bubble-like windows, it became known as a bubble car, a name also given to other similar vehicles.

 

In 1957, Isetta of Great Britain began producing Isetta 300 models at their factory in the former Brighton railway works under licence from BMW. The bit I really like about this story is that this car factory had no access by road! All components were delivered by rail and finished cars were shipped out the same way.

 

As you can see above, the British cars had right-hand drive with the door hinged from the right-hand side of the car, with the steering column moved across to the right as well. Right-hand drive meant that both the driver and the engine were on the same side, so a 27 kg counterweight was added to the left side to compensate.

 

Dunlop tyres were used, and Lucas electrics replaced the German Hella and Bosch components, with a different headlamp housing being used. Girling brake components replaced the ATE brake parts.

 

The Isetta was not popular in the UK until a three-wheeled version was introduced. Although three-wheeled vehicles are more prone to rolling over, there was a financial advantage: they could evade automobile legislation and taxation by being classed as three-wheeled motorcycles, and could be driven with a motorcycle licence. In 1962, Isetta of Great Britain stopped production of the little cars but continued to produce the engines until 1964.

 

The three-wheel vehicle seen above was manufactured in 1961. It is an exhibit in the Science Museum in London.

On the dog walk yesterday.

My granddaughter had a go at this, she couldn't resist the invitation.

It is harder than it looks!

(2012) 365 Day Project Day 131

 

Failsafe entertainment to always have on standby: bubbles and balloons. The breeze finally died down enough to attempt a photo and has produced a colourful (yet barely processed) version of our new house in the reflection!

Friends playing bubble, try to shoot it!

And got a very beautiful reflection!

During the height of the pandemic lockdown in the Pacific Northwest, this man would visit my neighborhood park and entertain us with his magical bubbles.
