I tried something a bit different on the weekend. As the saying goes "I killed 2 birds with one stone"..The kids got to play with bubbles and I got to take some shots. They were quite tough to shoot, as autofocus doesn't really work.

I am interested in C&C and in particular favourite or otherwise on these, and suggestions for improvement.

I love the second and third one especially! On the first the green colour seems to be a bit overwhelming and dark (but I am sitting at my office computer).

shot 3 is my least favourite as I find it a bit dark, but the darkness gives it a mood that's interesting. all 3 shots are cool. I really like the bkgd. on shot one. I just love this type of play:highfive:

Nice play time activity, I like the reflections in the last one.

All interesting. I like the second one the best. There is more going on in the second one. I wish it had a more colorful background.

Thanks for your kind comments.
The colours have only be what was acheivable by adjusting the tint in lightroom. The only processing I have done has been in lightroom.

Cool stuff! I like 2 the best as well because the bubbles really show up well but the reflections on the third one are exceptionally crisp and is also a nice composition.

Thanks Raiven.

Here's another one I took that day. I might try a reshoot on this as I like it, but it could be better.

I like all three of those shots Antz. I think the green one stands out most for me but really it's a close contest. Cool stuff!

I like these shots Antz! I like the first and second the best, more bubbles in the second just fill the space nicely without having too many bubbles, and having only 2 bubbles in the first with that green bg is great too! Well done!
