Jack, yep, those are regular soap bubbles.
It was a family walk in the park during my short trip to Moscow this past
summer, and we were blowing bubbles with the kids.
The condition (probably because of the relatively high humidity and
moderate temperature) was such that some of those bubbles lived for long
time, and traveled rather far (some, - as far as crossing that small pond
(which is probably some 80-140 yards/meters in size).
But I had only one moment when they were blowing over these ducks,
that's when I tried to catch the moment.
Cheers,
Igor
PS. Please, send that bill directly to The Swiss bank, and ask them to pay
from my account.

Your ducks are uniquely "sharp", Igor. <G>
Are those bubbles in the air in the single duck shot?
Thanks for commenting.
You'll be receiving a bill for using some of my space. ;-)

Jack,
I like wild ducks (in many different ways).
However, I've always struggled getting a good photo of them: I couldn't find
a composition that works for me.
I like what you've got.
If this photo were mine, I probably would try to play with sharpening
with masking (on unsharp filter), to highlight the individual ducks.
and would consider pushing the contrast just a notch up.
The funny thing is that I've seen your photo while working on a gallery where
I also had a few duck shots. So, I thought I'd respond in a
"photo-jam-session" type of way:

(My apology for invading your thread with my photos.)
Cheers,
Igor

I checked out a local wildlife preserve and found the flooding well under
way.
No geese yet, but
it's receiving a covering of migrating ducks.
Liked the lighting and the setting in general, so am posting.
Comments invited, of course.
