On the lighter side...much lighter



The granddaughters love the whole bubble blowing thing and we must have had 10-15 variations, from the original single small circle on a stem to a battery powered bubble blowing guns. This weekend I found a new version for a buck. It is by far the best of the lot. It has a long plastic loop in a narrow tube of solution. It's the least messy and the most effective version to date. It inspired a try at photographically capturing the possibilities. The breeze was a little too much for great opportunities but the potential is there nonetheless. When I get some free time I will be doing a more controlled shoot in the studio. Art? Maybe. We'll see.

While I understand your need for control (in the studio) part of the whimsical, impermanent and fleeting beauty of these images is exactly that- the wind takes them- changes them- and they disappear-live with a little risk.

I'm always curious to see how something looks when taken out of its natural environment and viewed under totally different circumstances.
