Bright Fence (Bubble)

    I'm really busy with work at the moment, so just uploading a shot from a couple of weeks ago.

    The bubble was just inches from the wooden fence here. The fence is to the right, and I think the right side of the bubble is brightest. Bubble reflections are pretty weird eh! Just looking at this gets me thinking!

    There's a black background here because I threw a black sheet on the ground below the bubble. Made up of old black t-shirts!

    (I'm stuck indoors for 12 hours a day at the moment with work. Kind of depressing! I'm keeping my spirits up by imagining the springtime, when I'll go out and photograph Peregrine Falcons.)

      Another cracker Richard! The effect of the fence, and the jet black background works perfectly!

      Will you be heading back to Devon for Peregrine photographing?

      Hi Joe

      I'm really pleased to say that there are lots of Peregrines near where I live in Huddersfield. There are pairs in Manchester, Oldham, Bolton, Malham, and some out on the sea cliffs at Scarborough and Flamborough Head. So I'll search them out when I get some spare time and decent light. But I will pop back to Exeter a couple of times this year, and then I can't help but walk to the church and to see the falcons there. I came down in mid December actually, and saw them then. I saw one bird! That was nice, because I wasn't sure whether they'd be around in winter.
