I was photographing bubbles at night while they were floating through the air. I used a Canon 420EX Speedlite handheld and fired it at the bubble from the side while the shutter was open. I had my lens on manual focus to the closest distance and I was getting as close to the bubbles as possible. Exposure was manual and lens was set at 17mm for the widest angle possible.
Welcome to DPC. I see this is your first entry, and what a fine entry it is.
Technically difficult, you pulled it off beautifully. It's interesting on many different levels, thus keeping the viewer involved for a long time.
Just a thought - Right now, the image is almost exactly half 'n half. I wonder how this very nice image would look with just a little of the black area at the bottom cropped out.
Other than that, I'll just say congratulations on a very nice image and I wish you continued success here at DPC.
Oh what a neat way to do a self-portrait. I would never have guessed you did this at night. What a creative idea! I'm surprised this did not score highter.
Well if it is any consolation to you I think this pic scored very low in the challenge. There were some great images in the challenge and this was one of them....42nd??? No way!!! Should have been much higher
