Windex Bubbles

[Mike Buckley]

This is what happens when you blow into a straw inserted in Windex. C&C is encouraged, though I don't have any particular concerns.

Looks like a round version of the Bird's Nest Stadium in Beijing.

A really beautiful shot imho - I like very much.

A neet shot mike. The B&W works well with it. Lots of lines, shapes, and tones in the bubbles. How about a close up next time. Just by zooming in on the screen makes for a whole different image. Break out the macro lens.

Thanks, guys!

Steve: I've thought of renting a macro lens some weekend for use in my makeshift studio. Perhaps you'll loan me yours.

I don't have one either , I usually use my 300 for some light macro stuff.


Oh yea, did i mention i use real camera equipment, not that nikon stuff.

The closest focusing distance on my 300mm lens is 9 feet. Not practical for use in my makeshift studio, which is 6 feet x 8 feet.
