Bubble Catcher

I love how some bubbles are in focus and some aren't.

This is incredible :o) Such a strong image. It makes me feel like a little kid just looking at it.

Burbujita *----*!

thinking "outside the box" definitely makes this picture more eye-catching than if the child had been in focus. great job!

Ringo Muxa says:

the playing with the focus here is just amazing: the focused bubles are so uncentered and randomly distributed that my eyes got really challenged. I like when this happens.
Thanks for sharing.
