Blowing Bubbles
don’t ever let anyone burst your bubble!

Put your camera into manual mode and get artistic with bubbles.

Shoot Set Up
- Set up a black paper background so the bubbles will stand out, and rely on window
light from one side to illuminate them. - Pop a silver reflector on the table-top to bounce extra light under the bubbles.
- Using a remote control to fire the shutter just after you’ve blown the bubbles.
Post Processing Tip
Combine multiple bubble shots in Photoshop using layers and Blend modes. Up the Vibrancy levels for oomph.
