Picture a Day — Soap Universe
A #streetphoto from one lucky encounter back in September 2024. It was magic hour and a great light, and the plot itself: half-dozen group of kids and two parents, PRO bubble-makers. (Thats the most reliable and proven way to deliver an instant fun and happiness to the kidz — with minimum efforts!)
With years I started to love good light more and more, so no surprise I'm in love with all of this series. The light was pure magic here. Different angles and framing decisions I made lead to various captures, when I positioned myself to have the green foliage on the back, imo it worked best. Particularly this frame has 10 bubbles alive and one (or maybe two) just burst. Perhaps a wisp of soapy water got into the child's eyes — that's why the girl has such a disgruntled, upset expression.
Anyway, ten bubbles are still alive in the air — and although their arrangement certainly isn't the ecliptic, the whole composition reminds me of nothing less but the planets of the solar system. Perhaps this association is not inaccurate — but I have nothing to do with it! Creation of the world is before our very eyes. A soapy universe. Quite ephemeral, — a full life cycle lasting only 2-3 minutes.
С годами я всё больше и больше полюбил хороший свет, поэтому неудивительно, что я влюбился во всю эту серию. Свет здесь был просто волшебным. Разные ракурсы и решения по кадрированию привели к различным снимкам, и, на мой взгляд, лучше всего получилось, когда я расположился так, чтобы зелёная листва оказалась на заднем плане. В частности, на этом кадре 10 живых пузырьков, и один или два из них только что лопнули. (Возможно, клочок мыльного раствора попал ребенку в глаза — вот почему у девочки такое недовольное расстроенное выражение лица).
Так или иначе, 10 пузырей все еще в воздухе — и хотя это не эклиптика, ассоциация у меня одна: планеты солнечной системы. Ничего не могу с собой поделать! Перед нами — сотворение мира. Мыльная вселенная. Эфемерная — жизненный цикл завершится уже через 2-3 минуты.
My post goes for #Photofeed #streetphoto challenge, Round 163.
