Bubbles

January 8, 2013 Photo (008/365): "Frozen Bubbles"

The temperature reached a balmy 5° F after school today with only -6° wind chills, so I attempted a little science experiment. The challenge is catching the bubbles before they either burst or blow away! 

  • Here are a few tips: Choose a calm day (I tried to freeze bubbles on Monday, but it was way too windy and cold!). 

  • Heat your bubble mixture before you go outside; it helps the bubbles last longer. 

  • Have your camera ready and experiment with angles and exposure.

  • Most of all, have fun!
