Playing with a kids set of bubbles in the garden...you knpow dip in a wand and blow the bubbles off it....a focus nightmare...fun results,
2013 ETC - Bubbles.
I made my own oilier than your average bubble mix for this. I would have liked a nice sky blue background but the reflections were greater the darker the background was. Hence the fence.
Just gave this bubble a bit of a lift. F/5 makes for clear reflections. Upwards from f/5 there will be a stronger reverse reflection coming, I think, from the inside rear surface.
Not perfect...but it's my 1st try...Thanks to Peggy. who assisted me in discovering 'the bubble'. Peggy is a peach of a Flickr Friend and went way beyond her time and energy to help me. Thanks Peggy! ; ))
This most recent set of bubble photos were taken using a studio flash and plain old washing up liquid and water. The bubble doesn't last very long at all, between 30 and 60 secdonds, but the colours are great! The powerful studio flash allows me to use F/32 and ISO 100 which ensures the sharpest image.
I was walking along the Royal Mile and saw a flurry of bubbles flying. Sadly, I didn't have my usual Canon camera.
As the saying goes, the best camera you have is the one in your hand with you right now. I took out my mobile phone!
I took this whilst watching someone demonstrating a bubble blowing device. On processing I could see the reflection of the ground within it, reflected upon itself.
These are a bit samey so this is the last of these for a while.
This is how I do these soap bubble shots.
I have a piece of curved perpex (I bought a flat sheet and bent it in the bath by pouring boiling water onto it) which I covered in tissue paper. A domed light tent basically.
I have 2 flashguns either side.
I blow the bubbles in from under the side of the perspex using a tube.
I made a loop in a pipe cleaner about 1 cm across. Then I wrapped it around the end of the tube and angled it up and then down. This allows it to catch a good amount of bubble fluid and because of the downward angle of the pipe cleaner it means gravity can still feed the loop even if the blow pipe is angled upwards. This lets me blow large/lots of bubbles. Using just a tube I found I could only blow small or very few bubbles at a time.
