We were on vacation with family and friends and all of our kids were outside blowing bubbles. There were hundreds all over the place. I started shooting and noticed that you could see the reflections so I started focusing on trying to capture a good reflection out of them.

    The essence of reflection and colors on the most fleeting subject. Very captivating; kinda like the dream you just awoke from but details are sketchy :) cool

    Beautiful! I'm suprised though 'cause I'd expect to see you in the reflection of the bubble while you're taking the photo.

    Holy crap! It doesn't get any more perfect than this.

  • Brian Reese

    Brian Reese said (20 Mar 2008):

    Thanks for all the nice compliments guys. Actually, in response to Junette Huynh, I was using my 28 - 200 lens for these bubble shots. At the time I only had a super wide angle and this 28-200 so needless to say I was back quite a bit. I'll check the meta-data on the image for accuracy but I was probably shooting around 135 mm. That explains the hard depth of field. BUT I have a few new lenses one being a 50mm F1.8 that I want to try which will allow me to get closer and possibly pull off a similar shot with me in it. That is a great idea.
