Old shot of a sandpiper blowing a bubble

Huge bubbles blown by a Hungarian family out side the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, August 2013. Great entertainment..!

Bubbles in the sink at my old school, when everyone was washing their leftover paints away.

First proper bubble bath I think. It smelled of strawberries.

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.

My son and I were playing with the bubbles. I was having a hard time getting any in focus. We'll be trying again as soon as the clouds clear.

I'm dreaming dreams,

I'm scheming schemes,

I'm building castles high.

They're born anew,

Their days are few,

Just like a sweet butterfly.

And as the daylight is dawning,

They come again in the morning.
