A cascade of bubbles made from mixing dry ice with soapy water, with a flashlight placed behind to create the kaleidoscope-like effect.

The physical phenomena in the image is clearly illustrated. Nice framing work in the image as well.
Well done capturing the light refraction off the bubbles, looks like a crystalline structure.
Amazing to see the thin flim interference happening across the light spectrum. I really like how the bright white light shines in the middle of the frame and has nice contrast.
The thin film physics are very prevalent here. The purple at the top gives good contrast and bubble boundaries are in good focus
The way the light transmits and diffuses through the bubbles looks very interesting. I like how it brings out the different colors in the light too.
like the rainbow of the bubbles.
I feel like this image is spooky. Something slightly unnerving. It’s really cool because of that! Awesome
I like that from the framing the image has a very mysterious feel to it. The bubbles almost look like glass.
Nice! I think this image is very ephemeral and I like the reflections of the light off the bubbles. What was your light setup? We had something like this happen with ours and the bubbles got WAY out of hand – we had to very carefully run outside. Good job!!
Sweet image, I like the shapes involved.
This is a cool image. I really like all of the colors that come through in the image.
Love seeing how the light reflects throught the bubbles as they expand and form under eachother! creates some very cool rainbow coloring!!
The kaleidoscope effect that was made here is very nice! I like that it’s a very nice representation of how light reflects through the soapy bubble surface.
