I intended to take a short blogging break that has turned into over a month long absence. I went to visit my two Granddaughters for a week and then they returned to my house for two weeks and then we took them home and stayed another week. My time away was filled with Grandma duties and I had the most wonderful time. I'm still catching up on rest but thought it was time to begin sharing some of the photos I've taken the past few weeks.The two photos above were taken as my daughter played with the girls making big bubbles.
I set out to capture the bubbles and was totally pleased with these results. The reflection you see in the bubbles is of my daughter's home. If you look closely in the first one that's me in the doorway taking the photos.
These are straight out of the camera with no cropping or extra processing. I intend to try more of these. In fact, I already bought the bubbles!
Because the house is white and fits the theme this week I'm linking up to Tara's LEM Photo Challenge and for Weekend Reflections with James and Alicia's Summer Photo Challenge (bubbles).
Edited: YEAH! I was picked as one of Tara's favorite's this week!
Thanks Tara!!!

Your bubble reflections are marvelous. I look forward to seeing more like these.
I'm glad you had a great time with your grandchildren.
Carletta, I love these, too!
I was just thinking about you this evening..and thinking about your granddaughters and grandson...is he Sammy? I was wondering how you were and when you had seen them.
Those are lovely picture. I even find the first one perfect, with the petroleum reflection of the soap...
WOW!! These are great! I need your camera-lol- or one just like it!!
At first I thought a 'gazing ball,' but the bubbles are even better!

Great capture of her house in the bubbles, your timing must be good. Like the bokeh blurring in the first too, thanks for sharing:)
Welcome back my friend. I've missed you but doing the grandma duties are so important. What a fantastic time that must have been. Your bubbles are absolutely spectacular. Very well done. Have a wonderful weekend.
ahhhh grandma duties are so wonderful

Great shots, I remember being so excited when I found a reflection of my house in a bubble too. Have a great weekend.
Your bubble shots are awesome, Carletta! I love them! What fun reflections for the day! Sounds as though you've had a great time! Hope it continues through the weekend! Enjoy!

How surreal ! I love it !
Delightful! My granddaughter loves bubbles too, and I have a few similar shots! My advice, get yourself a "bubblegun", you will have heaps of bubbles at one time.
Know what this bubble reflection is awesome. I tried to make a huge bubble but it just don't work for me ^_^ So happy to see this one great job!!
Sunset reflection
Those bubble reflections are amazing! You are an amazing photographer, too. Awesome, girl!
Welcome back, Carletta! I'm glad you had a good time with your granddaughters. These are great captures, especially the first one. (I see you!)
Welcome back to blogland. I was off for 5 weeks too. It does one good I think. Your bubble shots are amazing, especially the swirls on the first one. It must have been fun playing grandma.
That first photo is AWESOME!
Extraordinaire ! Ces bulles sont poétiques et font rêver, mais si tu arrives à y voir un reflet, c'est magique !
wow, those are some great bubble shots, so neat!!
Love your bubbles!!
Wow! What fab bubble shots. Those reflections are so clear. Great work. Thanks so much for joining the Crazy Days of Summer Photo Challenge!
Very nice shots :)
Great shot, I thought it was those giant mirrors at the corner of roads.
Bubbles are good fun, cheap and easily made.
The bubbles and reflections are wonderful!
Fantastic reflections! It is great to find a cool surprise in an already fun shot.
I love the first shot. Surely you captured your granddaughters with their bubbles. I got lucky once and got two excellent shots of one of my granddaughters (Sara) reaching for her bubbles.
Great reflections! Thanks for joining Alicia and I for the Crazy Days of Summer Photo Challenge. I hope you'll join us again on Friday when we move on to a new theme, summer treats. Have a great day.
Fabulous reflections! And I am happy you're back and happy you had a good break and happy that you are still going to play with bubbles~!~
I cannot wait to try this out with when I get to my granddaughter’s house on Wednesday. Your reflections are superb. Genie
Amazing reflections! You are so creative and talented!
These are great, Carletta! You have a right to be pleased, and I hope your future forays into bubble photography are even better!
Love these house bubbles! Beautifully done.
That is one awesome bubble and an even more awesome photo! Wow.
