    That's quite cool. Cheaper than a fish eye lens!

    It's quite difficult. I've had a few failed attempts.

    I've tried it too, but it's not easy, you did well.

    It'd be so much easier if there was someone else to make the bubbles rather than trying to do it all myself, and you need good light and no wind, and good bubble mix is hard to find.

    well executed but tbh a bit boring, overdone, old, seen before (by most), cliche, niche images. Surpirsed they are nu-wave HDR...........

    A decent F-number (F8-11), a fast shutter speed and an ISO to take all these two elements. Dont shot to close to the bubble (remember the depth of field)
    Put the camera on a tripod, manually focus on a point where the bubble will be, use a bubble gun or a bubble machine (they sell them in Mother Care for €15 - best investment ever for kids photos) and start snapping. I will guarantee you 90% of the shots will be crap :) but there will be one or two that will be worth the work.
    Enjoy :D

    Some good examples there, smash. I'll be trying this as well, as soon as I get a bubble maker. Then I can be a kid again :) Only problem is I'm not brave enough to attempt this in city center, where architecture is good. And thank you Ovidiu for advice.
