****Thanks to everyone who voted and commented!! This is my second entry to ever make the top 10 and I'm thrilled :-) Especially with so many entries in this challenge! And thanks also to the faves that were marked during voting....that was another first for me. Last, but not least, thanks to my dear husband who spent 45 minutes blowing bubbles in order for me to get this shot.

Awww you're so very welcome for the comment. I really did love this shot. I wish it would have taken something higher up on the page (like 1,2 or 3 but hey a top ten??? I mean that's gold in my eyes already. I really do just love this picture. BTW I hope you don't mind me trying it someday. I need to get my new camera first because the one I have now doesn't hit F/16 so it will be a while.
Again your most welcome for the comment, and the FAV. I hope you upload a beautiful print for this. I'm sure that someone would want it.
<----- ME. Anyway, Wonderful job and Congrats on you're top 10.
