Weekend Reflections / My Home in a Bubble...

 Click on photos to enlarge!
I was so happy to just catch bubbles in my lens and then I was delighted to see the reflections too.
It was challenging because I was making the bubbles when a breeze stirred to lift them up a bit.
That gave me a little time to grab my camera and focus...I missed more than I got, but I was thoroughly entertained for a while!
Auto-focus would not work, much to my dismay...
Most of these reflections captured the pool reflections too...
...just SO much fun!






Okay...I think I am done with the bubble thing for a while.
It was fun!
Hmmm...they REALLY might be fun at the beach?

This is great reflections photos. I think I like nr 1 best..it looks like a cross inside the bubble.
I must try this sometimes.
Wish you a nice evening:-)

Amazing shots!

Whoa, that's really cool! My first thought was this has to be manual focus because auto would never work. It must have taken a while to get a 'process' down to get shots on a reliable basis. It's neat that you have different backgrounds and background colors. Might be tough at the beach unless it's very calm.
