English photographer Richard Heeks stumbled upon his bubble obsession in 2007 when he was caught up with taking close-up shots of his wife’s eyes (“I just liked to see the whole landscape in her eyes”). At that time, his nieces were blowing bubbles in the garden and he noticed the remarkable reflections they made. The not-so-glacial shift from photographing eyes to bubbles happened there and then.
In a recent interview with photo sharing site Flickr he added:
“At first glance, some people think my images are from space — you know, planets, stars… but when they find out they’re actually bubbles, lots of people are amazed that something so small and ordinary can be so beautiful.”
Since then, he has gone on to experiment with annihilating these planetary bubbles with needles (for the record, the needle just slipped through) and bare fingers, as well as using a special colored bubble mix called Zubbles for clearer and shinier reflections. So what are his tips for taking a great bubble shot? “A good day is a still day with slight cloud (diffuses the sunlight)”
What are you waiting for then?
