Let me say this about my Ikea vases photos. On my flickr account I have about 1800 photos. Of those only 25 are Ikea vases, a very small percentage. Flickr has a mysterious way of ranking photos popularity. Of my 25 most popular photos according to Flickr, seven are Ikea vases, a significant percentage. Why? I don't know but it seems the world likes Ikea Vase photos. Who am I to argue with the world?

BTW, I'm not really happy with this shot and I've figured out a way to make it IMO much better. When I get home from vacation I'm going to reshoot this.

I don't know, Pops. Do you think that rehabilitation is even possible, at this point? Really, you surprise us continuously. Just when we think you have the addition under control, it pops up again (accidentally). Interesting new adaptation. Cheers, -mikey

I agree! Great abstract and the IKEA vases add a nice backdrop!

Thanks Mary Anne & Nico

The foreground is soap bubbles lit by the on camera flash and the light streams are reflection of two lights off the bubbles during the long exposure.

Wow... never seen such a nice abstract-looking variation on the IKEA theme. May I ask what we are seeing, or how you did this? Compliments and regards Nico

I love the colors, lines, and shapes in this, Pops. And those Ikea pieces make a wonderful background!
