Won't last long among those spiky plants!

Very nice. It has an ethereal feel to it.

Depth of field. (Less background) 6

this shot is great, looks like the bubble will be gone soon by the look of those trees...hehe

Beautiful...well done and neat composition.

I have to wonder what happened when it hit all the pricklies.... :) For all that the bubble is theoretically the subject, however, the focus is distinctly on the sharp points in the background. Not sure if that was deliberate or not; if so, it doesn't quite work for me in this context. The capture of the colors on the bubble's surface is really nice.

Using your macro in this shot would have got around your focusing problem. It then may have looked amazing if you had the REFLECTION of everything in the background in focus!

Shame the bubble's not in focus, althought the background is.

great original idea, and good execution.

Very cool... I would have cropped about 1 inch off of the left side, about 1/4 off the top, and maybe 1/2 inch off the bottom. Great shot!!

nice irridescence and nice concept

Simple but effective.

This is (IMHO) probably the best almost shot of the challenge. This is a nice picture. The plants are in nice focus and you have a great DOF looking into the garden. Oh and there\'s a bubble there.

Now if the bubble was in focus this would be it. Tough shot to get perfect and a great attempt. Bonus for difficulty!

Oh and ya got the Pepsi logo backwards in the bubble...

The background is very busy, and in addition, those plants are sharp and pointy, which would be a bad thing for a bubble. Your camera is focused on the plants, and not the bubble, which should have been the main focus. A narrow(er) dof would have helped to blur out the plantlife.

This is my favorite photo in the challenge! Fantastic color,clarity, and composition. Surely this will be a ribbon! 10.

Certainly the most creative image of the challenge. Having the background in focus through the bubble and the bubble itself out of focus is a terrific idea. Almost looks like something out of the classic movie "Wizard of Oz".

Outstanding that you caputred this bubble so clear. Great take on the challenge.
09/29/2003 02:29:01 PM
great photo! Normally I'd think the bubble should be in focus, but I like how the background's sharpness sets up the soft focus, dreamish aspect of the bubble, which matches your title well.
09/29/2003 08:39:44 AM
I would have prefered the bubble in focus and the background blurred for this challenge. There is certainly artistic merit to this image the way that you have it.

Nice image, fits the challenge theme well. 8 Morgan
