Soap bubbles root

This is a world of colours and forms! One never gets tired watching these lively and fast changing interference phenomena. I remember how I got acquaintanced with this phenomenon. Leg was broken and it was boring. On clear days I could watch and photograph contrails from balcony but there was not too much to do indoors. I had a lot of old Fujichrome 100 film and wondered if there was any meaningful way to spend it. Colours of soap bubbles had always inspired but technically it had been impossible to photograph them. But an idea occured: immobilize bubbles somehow and use a flash. This opened a whole new world to spend time with! Bubbles were blowed on a large tray and a strong flash illuminated nearly fully closed macrolens - and colours were on film! Things have developed further and perhaps I ought to do a new run in capturing scenes from this world.
