I was asked why the water bubbles in my previous post aren't flat on one side where they are attached to the side of the glass.
The bubbles you see above were photographed in a glass of Sprite; sugary carbonated beverage. I shot a bunch of photos of these bubbles, which were larger than the ones available in a glass of water. Only one-ish of the photos was focused in a way that shows the pad of bubble attached to the side of the glass. I'm guessing that it's a hard thing to get spot on focus with since I've seen it so rarely.
Clearly, you can see that these bubbles are not merely half spheres hanging out in there. Rather, they are complete spheres with a little bit attached to the glass, holding it in place. And the attachment is not simply flat, but kind of veiny and weird. Perhaps that structure is what creates a sort of suction that holds the bubble in place.
Send me your suggestions for something tiny that you'd like to see big.
