Playing with my bubbles
Lens: 18-250 Pentax Camera: k20d Photo Location: Saugus Ma. ISO: 800 
Posted By: charliezap, 07-03-2011, 06:18 AM

After a little hiatus from posting anything new on the forum I finally got to relax and shoot a new theme.The bubbles are the size of softballs.Not those puny drops that EM shoots.It wasn't easy wanding the bubbles--grabbing the camera and sipping wine to get some of the shots.What do my neighbors think? The bubbles are really tough-some of them actually bounce across the grass and come to rest after a minute or so.That's an idea for a later series.Some of the shoots are in "illustration mode" from the k20's processor.Now I have to go out and get the grandkids more bubble stuff. To everyone stateside here enjoy the holiday and be safe.--charliezap

Thanks Wade. Last fall we had the property completely redone.Everything and every blade of grass is new..There were voids at first but everything is filling in.It's a nice spot here with conservation land on 2 sides and fairly quiet and US RTE 1 is only a 1/2 mile from me with all that is needed for any item that you can imagine.--charliezap

Charlie, fun series, especially reading your narrative. Doing fun things like this is why you might want to retire early, you better get some more bubble mix. Bob

Bubble shooting was fun but I think that I pulled a muscle from waving that bubble wand too much. and Jer the retirement is put off until the end of the year and I will give you some details in your next posting.--capn zap
