Light Bubbles at OMI


The light bubbles images were generated by a series of photographs taken with a wide-angle lens on December 12/13, 2007. The images are stitched together to form a panoramic. The exposures are 60 seconds except the second and last images which are 120 seconds. The bubble from Ottawa is the brightest and reaches a maximum height of 13.5 degrees. Bubbles from Kingston, Toronto and Bancroft are also visible with less than 4 degrees in height. Even smaller bubble can be seen with less than 2 degress in height from Renfrew and Perth + Smiths Falls.
