Frozen Bubble - Just Playing Around...

Just wondering what you guys think of this idea? Its a regular kid's soap bubble, but frozen at the end of a straw being held by one of my kids....

Just wondering if you like it or not and why.
Thanks.

Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated.

Care to elaborate what's wrong with the execution? Personally, I like the picture and think the idea is pretty cool.

I also agree

Looks OK but what was the purpose? Seems like a lot of work for a quick shot. Nothing in the image says 'Frozen bubble' to me.

The purpose:
-> besides amusing my little one, I like the textures that frozen bubbles make.
-> Sometimes they pop and look like shattered glass too.

This one may not have worked out so well, but I'm sure I'll try them again.

Maybe including the picture of the kid's face in the background would make it more interesting.

Hmm, how about a macro shot of one?

Macro would have been very nice.

I think the image is well exposed with a nice bokeh and shallow DOF. However, I would have moved my camera perspective down and to the left to capture your son's face. I would have positioned the bubble in the lower left corner of the image with his arm leading the viewer to his face in the upper right corner. I would have told your son to make a surprised expression, eyes and mouth open, in awe. I would have kept the shallow DOF with only the bubble in focus. I think it would have been a better perspective and created a mood.

+1 for this idea!

I should try that - I don't have a macro lens yet but maybe I can fake it. Thanks for the idea!

Hmmm ok... I can try that too. The thing is though, we've done frozen bubbles quite often, so it no longer surprises him! Have to get a different kid who's never seen it before I guess.

Ha, even a faked-surprised face can be pretty endearing!

A simple smile can be just as effective at creating a mood.
