Ooh I like this one Eva. Rather like your award winning solar system image. Beautifully clear ice I found I had to shoot with a polariser to remove reflected glare and place a dark hood over myself so the reflections from above (namely myself and the sky) became less intrusive. Did you find it necessary to do the same. I was working on a scale of around three square feet.

Thanks everyone and Happy New Year.
Hi Ian - I took this with a 180mm Macro lens about 1 to 2 feet directly above the scene. The width of view is only a few inches. I was blocking most of the overhead light as were the many tall pines around the pond even though it was quiet a sunny day. I did use a polarizer. I have got to get out and take more of these, unfortunately all the good ice is now covered with snow with more on the way tomorrow through Friday (~12 inches) in southern New Hampshire.

Fantastic. I always find these bubble pics interesting but getting the comp/crop right is tricky. Well done.

Very nice Eva. Reminds me of descending through someone else's bubbles while scuba diving.
