I find the Pinterest Fails website rather entertaining. I can relate. I’ve recently experienced a “nailed it” moment myself. These frozen bubbles are harder than it sounds or looks. Yesterday’s attempt was met with some limited success. The only small win was finding an acceptable mix so the bubbles would hold together and not break instantly when they landed on even the smoothest of surfaces.
I made another attempt this afternoon. The wind was a factor for me again. I ended up with more broken bubble blobs. My results did not turn out anything like what I was shooting for. So, yes, I “nailed it.”
This was an interesting experience. It may very well be too cold for this. I don’t know. I’ll have to research this more. I will have to try again perhaps in more calm and less cold conditions and other combinations thereof. I have plenty of bubble solution on my hands for a couple hundred more attempts.
I may have to try the dry ice frozen bubble thing.
These pictures are absolutely amazing Dan. Yes my friend, you nailed it! My favorite is by far the first one – I love how you can see the landscape inside the bubble!
Thank you Yael. My expectations were a bit high. Going in…I thought it would be easy. It turns out that creating and maintaining the bubble is only part of the equation. The other part, the complete composition of the shot, is where the art is really at.
I thought these were amazing !
Thanks Anne!
These are quite amazing ! It must be so difficult to shoot bubbles !
Thanks! It for sure wasn’t as easy at it seemed.
