I've been blowing a lot of bubbles recently, and taking photos of them. I now know that one of my cats loves them, and the other cat hates them.
Good shot.

Great! I'm not the only bubble chasing nutter!
Did any of them turn out well? As in, well enough to be bothered posting?

Haha, you're certainly not.
No, most of them popped as soon as the shutter went!

Wow, this is fascinating! I am very tempted to go try this now myself. I am sure that this took a lot of work, but it definitely paid off. I love it!

Thank you! And it did take a bit of work, I was chasing bubbles all around the garden trying to get them in focus before they either popped or flew off!

Bubbles! It has been so long when I last time blew soap bubbles.. :B Miss them.
I really like that backround! it looks like an airbrush painting 8) and still there is that beautiful bubble with sharp reflections. Gives a hint of symbolism :3

Lu-Sam-Fer In reply to Mewberry [2006-01-04 12:34:00 +0000 UTC]
Oh it took lots of shots before I got one with the bubble in focus!
I was determined to get the background like that, so I had to chase the bubbles around the garden at f/2.8 and at full zoom!
If anyone saw me, they'd have thought I was crazy!

Oh I know the feeling xD Once when I was taking photos of my cats I took nearly 80.. and one of them was okay!
Well that would have been a sight but at least you had something visible to chace x3

I usually take heaps of pictures to make sure at least one is good, but this time I took even more!
Wait...You were chasing invisible cats?!

althought the idea is intresting.. at least they would do awesome posers!

Yeah, you could make them do anything!
They could hover, attack each other, or play poker!

It can be very annoying. Particularly when you're dressed for summer, then it suddenly changes to winter!
