Soap Bubble Photography - Tips and Tricks

[Jens Heidler]

Hey everyone,
are you interested in soap bubble photography? If yes, I have some interesting discoveries for you:
Actually I am experimenting for month to improve my bubble images, but last week I think I finally made a big step forward. Mixing water with dish soap liquid revealed some pretty crazy gold pattern structures, after I have waited till the colours disappeard and then added a lot of turbulences with a straw.
Then, after adding vanilla sirup, it got even more amazing: Again, after blowing with the straw, the soap bubble develloped a new creamy glow look and those DID NOT POP. One bubble is even still there for 4 days now, somehow ended up in a "sugar crystal frozen structure".
So its super easy to take images, because the bubble does no move anymore In this video you can follow my workflow; feel free to ask if you have any question
Have a nice weekend everyone!

I've never tried the bubbles but have taken hundreds of macro shots of oil on water.

I'll have a full look at that video later.
