A panoramic shot of humpback whales bubble-feeding off Sitka, Alaska, with their ventral pleats swollen full of the spawning herring. Two subsequent horizontal frames were stitched together to form this panorama. Alaska Panhandle, Pacific Northwest.

I used some glasses upside down. Mixed washing up liquid, water and some glycerine. Glycerine is great as it makes the bubbles stronger and last ages. (Excellent for water drops too) . I then put my mix on top of the glass the. Used a paper straw to gently blow a bubble.
These bubbles formed in the lea of a large stone in the stream. The little ones would collect together to form bigger ones, sometimes a bigish one would come downstream and join with others. Then the largest would pop and the whole process start again.
I was on the bridge that spans the stream and if you look carefully you'll see mine and the bridge's reflection in the top left bubble!
Gaudi Park - Barcelona. Picture of bubbles made by a childrens entertainer in Goudi park on a sunny day. I loves the way the light catches the water and also the way the picture capture the bubbles bursting
Got up early this morning to take a couple of bubble pictures...Really much too windy for bubbles today... I am standing in front of a large brick pillar in my red pj's just to get out of the wind! You can see one of the other bubbles I blew in this bubble! THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE VIEWS, COMMENTS AND FAVS.....IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME!!!!!!
A macro view of a colorful soap bubble standing in as a planet, with a star field as a background.
Strobist/technical info:
The visible portion of the soap bubble spans about an inch. It was illuminated by a single Nikon SB900 speedlight placed 90° CL, one-foot away from and two-feet above the subject, pointing down at 45°. The speedlight was fired in Manual mode @ ½ power through a Neewer 24" x 24" soft box.
The SB900 was triggered by two PocketWizard Plus X's.
The star field was created in Gimp 2.10.
Lens: AF - S VR Zoom - Nikkor 70 - 300mm f / 4.5 - 5.6G IF - ED with 36mm extension tube attached.
This was such a beautiful morning and the day after the shortest day. The clouds started off grey and then turned to this beautiful pink.
Erst war der Frühling einfach schön, jetzt freut man sich schon über eine Abkühlung. Hier die Spitze eines sprudelden Brunnens.
SE Alaska, 8 Humpback whales bubble net feeding. After they dive you never know exactly where to point the camera despite them producing a bubble net, often they were much further away than expected on surfacing.
Better bigger! I love the clouds refracted in the bubbles.
I will try to catch up on here tonight. I've got hideous conjunctivitis (again) which is making it difficult to look at the computer for too long but the drops are starting to work now.
Yes I have got that creative bug again.
What can I say, I do live in my happy bubble.
Maybe one day I will have enough patience and take a photo of a cloud in a drop, in the meantime pop over to see some master shots of drops.
The lower you scroll the more your jaw will be dropping (: well mine does.
Bubbles in meditation.
This was a shot of two bubbles right before they merged together. The shape looks like a person sits in meditation, while swirling his/her thumbs. Or any thing you imagine.
My first attempt at photographing frozen soap bubbles.
Most photos you see of this kind of thing are taken at around -15 degrees or colder.
The coldest it got on this morning was -4 (Celsius) and it doesn't get much colder than that here.
I'm no means an expert on the subject, but from what I could work out was that the air temp. wasn't cold enough to freeze my bubbles but instead they seemed to freeze from the contact point upwards, in this case a metal park bench (it looks that way in the photo anyway).
I think this is why I couldn't get full round bubbles to freeze on the grass.
Consequently, this makes completely different ice patterns on the bubble.
One advantage though... in minus 15 or colder, the bubbles freeze really fast whereas in minus 4 they were taking around 15 mins to get to this stage... which meant I had the time to take enough images for a focus stack without changes to the ice patterns.
Taken at Clare South Australia.
23 images handheld at 1x with the mpe65 lens and focus stacked using Zerene.
