Blow a Bubble

In the last couple of weeks I got the idea to shoot bubbles, soap bubbles to be precise. Not that this hasn't been done before - there are plenty of examples on the Internet - but it was new to me. So I viewed a few "How to" videos and gathered the ingredients, the latter was not very hard as there are only two, dish washing soap and glycerin.

It took a couple of tries to get it right, first attempts failed because of bad lighting and focus/camera setting issues. Eventually I got the hang of it and I am amazed by the many different patterns and colors the surface of a soap bubble can develop.

To add to the fun of shooting bubbles, I also went ahead and made them into little planets, which, in my opinion, look more like brain scans than planets, lol. But see for yourself ...
