When life serves you with lemons what do you do? The answer is: turn them into lemonade! The recent “polar vortex” in the US was one such lemon that life served up which had people stuck indoors. Photographer Angela Kelly decided to turn it into lemonade instead. In a creative burst she and her 7-year old son decided to blow bubbles with soap water and see what -12°C would do to them. What they found was simply fascinating and captured in this fabulous photo series.
