You have to carry on...
When your bubble bursts....
This image was captured some weeks ago and got lost on my hard drive, I was going through some today and rediscovered it. A moment in time rarely if ever seen. :)

Hearing the weather forecast about the cold front and a few more days of looming gloomy weather, we decided to savour the remaining hours of sunshine. We took a bubble stick and went for walk in the park with our camera.
The wind was quite strong before the storm, hence the bubble get blown out and did not have time to form a more spherical shape. They looked like transparent potatoes in the air!
One is never too old to play.............
Last year I took some pictures of frozen soap bubbles during the coldest part of winter, so I thought I'd keep up the tradition.
It was -12°F / -24°C when I took this. I wanted to get some more interesting shots but it's too cold to hang around outside blowing bubbles for too long.
