I had to pay my daughter $1 to stand up on a ladder on the front sidewalk for this shot. The white circle in the bubbles is my reflector, which I was holding while shooting.

This is very good - excellent halo around the head and use of fill flash.

Beautiful prospective! I wish you had left out the tiny bit of green on the bubble blower but otherwise a wonderful shot.

Great shot and choice of angle to make best use of the sunlight on the bubbles - well done. Nice diagonal and lovely halo, a couple of minor points but I think I may have cropped out the bush in the bottom right and the green of the bubble stick is annoyingly prominent once you have clocked it! Good luck.

I find the green in the bubbles distracting.

I love it! The lighting is so unique, and I love the little touch of green in the bubbles over the tree. Good composition too.

Really like the angle of your shot, also like the subject you chose to saturate. Nice work.

Nice composition and light. I don't like the green bubbles though. Did you get any soap on the lens?

Love the bubbles!

Great angle, love the highlights in her hair. The issues for me are the trees and shrubs - the image would have been much better without them, and the colour of the bubbles - they look unnatural, I guess because they're taking on the colour of the sky and the trees.

Maybe a better choice would have been almost all greyscale, and only keep her lips lightly in colour?
