Bubbles

Its not about michael jackson's pet monkey.🐒

So more weeks of photography, i decided to take some images of bubbles made the mixture and tried to take some shots, outside, inside and in the darkroom where i decided on the lighting.

So i tried and tried and tried, its certainly not as easy as you thnk, or its just me may be using the balck background was the bad idea, i will try again today in the sun.

Any way i used all the ideas from this site, bubble. 

I dont think that the images are bad, i know they arent the greatest, as you can see i used two light either side of the camera to make them as bright as possible. Then blew my own bubbles, without dripping on the camera.

So my thoughts were about re creating the apple bubbles, I have previously taken images while there where in a sink bowl and could take the images and get real close in with macro but there would be lots of other bubbles like in the bath.

So floating bubble is not easy, focusing on the bubble is speed critical falling bubbles and getting the correct speed of shutter in a dark room with a aperature to just less than focus on everything behind. That was part of my problem my background is smooth and shiny so capture the reflection of the light so i tried to have the background with no relfection and the lamps facing me blinding! me.

With multiple tries and fails i eventually got this one. 

So i got the simplicity of the bubble and plenty of blank space to the writing to be placed for marketing and it could be manipulated further.

You can have some real fun with bubbles next frozen bubble.

On another note redbubble and other print on demand servies have not done me any good getting me plenty of follows, thats nice but follows doesnt convert to purchases, similar to fineartamerica and artpal. putting my photos on these site i am hopeing to get noticed and have the chance of selling more photos.
