Joanne Furton is always looking for something fun and different to photograph and with today’s photos I think she found some winners. She said she got the idea from another Michigan photographer and decided that as long as we were having some cold mornings, she’d give it a shot. The first four photos were actually her second attempt, done on a frigid morning and Joanne was so focused on capturing the photos and video that she almost got frost-bitten fingers. She didn’t mention the temperature, but that last photo was from her first attempt when it was around 20°, right after sunrise.
Here’s the recipe Joanne used for the bubble mixture, in case you’d like to try freezing bubbles:
1 cup of water
4 Tbls Dawn dish soap
3 Tbls glycerin (found by the band aids at the store)
2 Tbls sugar
The video Joanne made, shows how quickly the freezing happens when it’s cold outside! I like that you can see the bubble moving with the wind that morning, right at the beginning.
