I do like them, quite original. I know the anti-crop police will jump on me for saying this, but both images would benefit from cropping to an 8x10 ratio, or perhaps even a square one.
I miss the fairy inside the bubble on the first picture.
Is it invisible? ;)
I like the idea and prefer the first image of both.
I also believe you can do much more out of it.
So I'd be curious to see more experimenting with the soap.
I like them both, but #2 is a classically beautiful shot.
Nicely done! Of course now that you've gotten started you'll have to go to http://www.klutz.com and get a 'Bubble Thing'.
Mike.
Nicely done. Continue to work with this concept! You could put together a very interesting show of soap bubbles showing up against differing backgrounds. The first one is great. Do much the same at a field of flowers, at a public market, near a marina, against fresh snow and so on. The combination makes for highly surreal combinations that seduces the viewer into appreciating heterogeneous elements combined by circumstance.
Definitely run with this idea for a while
there are endless possibilities in those bubbles.

Unfortunately, I also see an unpleasant connection between the dog and the bubble in the last image, making me wonder why you fed your dog soap. ; )You have a jolly peculiar mind, Sir!
Blair, I find this last one great.
Because it helped me see something. A principle. You could really do magic with these bubbles:
To me the bubble looks like an alien spaceship, or a magical fairy bubble, or a brownie vessel, whatsever.
So - you have a sort of foreign observer or witness to things, once the bubble appears.
I believe, if you take common scenes, street shots and other with a bubble in them, you change the whole scene.
The last image could be just a simple shot of a dog and some stuff.
But the bubble changes it.
Why is the bubble there ?
What is it thinking about the dog?
What does the dog think about the bubble?
You opened a door !
Great stuff!
The subjective power of our minds: I see a fairy creature putting her hand/wing to her mouth in the green plant just left of the bubble in the first image. Quite a magical image.

Thank you. Racing back and forth with a short zoom paid off.
I agree with Wolf, nice shot.....Fun isn't it.. ;D
