Magic Ball
The magic ball in the side yard... It is a soap bubble, of course. Liz and Sonia and Wendy were playing with one of those soap bubble wand things using special soapy water, and that you then swing through the air to make a string of bubbles. It was really difficult to photograph what was going with everyone running in circles, and then jumping up to try and break the bubbles. I was torn between shooting people and bubbles, and just the bubbles alone. This shot of a single bubble is better than the shots of people and bubbles together. If you enlarge it, you can see two images of the house reflected in it.

Very nice! The reflection looks like a painting. :)
This is wonderful!! Cannot believe you captured the reflection of the house. Very cool! bsk
Thank you, all! I wouldn't have "thought" about photographing a bubble either. What happened is that I SAW it, and then something registered with me that it was interesting, and unusual, and unexpected, and I went for it.
You have set the bar very high for future posts. Fantastic shot!
Ken this is amazing! You captured such a strange and beautiful subject in such a way that instills a real sense of wonder in the viewer. Or maybe i just like bubbles too much. Either way, you truly are a gifted man.
enough praise already, we don't want Ken to rest on his laurels.....
Wow -- it's Magic!!
Wow! This looks Christmas Card-worthy.
