Making bubbles our of what? Mind you look at the kids & the magic before their eyes.
A good photo, for sure, but there had to be this one parent with a ruddy fag hanging out of his mouth.

Children that age are so adorable and a joy to have around. What a shame kids have to grow up into adults.

That is the most amazing shot. The focus on the little boy but u still had the depth of field to render the bubble with a decent texture. Well ok I know but its a brilliant shot. A work of art actually. I love it.

How can u focus on your subject and yet get backround into so amazing bokek. Is it your lense. I know I could do it it with a d90. I wish I knew how u did this.

It's great how this snapshot captures this young boy's moment of glee. I probably would have had the same joyous feeling had I been in the park with him - if only for a mere second or two.

I also like how the depth of field focuses on the children and the massive bubbles - great picture Mr. Zakharov.

Notice how the kids are sharp and the bubble guy already blurred... this is called post-processing: when opening max wide your lens is not enough -> photoshop
