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!

Ah well. You can always try again.
I did!

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! 
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

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

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?!

xDDD Nyaah! I have enough cats (three! 
althought the idea is intresting.. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, you could make them do anything!
They could hover, attack each other, or play poker!
3 cats! I've got none...but I've two dogs!

Unlike today...

Oh, yesterday we had some of the infamous Melbournian climate change action.
Where in can go from clear skies at 43°C one day, to complete grey cloud cover at 17° the next!

that's some heavy weather change! Us in germany, we don't have such a weather... It's the fault of the global earth warming (dunno if this is correct
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It can be very annoying. Particularly when you're dressed for summer, then it suddenly changes to winter!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
17 degrees is for us nearly summer

Yeesh. That's about a good winter's day here!

Whoops! Missed it!
Usually it's just blow bubbles, but blow bubbles about works.
Not blow about bubbles though...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, I thought 'blow about' sounds silly, but it's always better to make sure

Thank you! Glad you like it!
