immediate lightness...

We arrived at the park yesterday afternoon after a long morning of rain and low temperatures. It was still cold but we all needed to get some air.....................across the grass we saw this amazing sight!.....................it was impossible not to go and see what was going on...........


These guys had the most simple tools to make the most huge bubbles...

it was beautiful to see them floating in the breeze and changing shapes until they popped....


this one is caught mid pop....there were a lot of kids squealing with delight as they chased bubbles and popped them with sticks..........I'm not sure if that was the reason why I could not stop laughing. It was like a sudden weight had been lifted, to stand amongst thousands of silent and beautiful bubbles, big and small, with kids squealing, cold tempearatures, and people just standing in wonder (and taking photos)...it was totally bizarre......and totally lovely....
