More lighting on the boy's face would have really improved this photo. A trick that I use is to use a piece of white foam board to reflect light back onto the subject. You can actually use anything large and white (or silver) that will reflect diffused light. Nice shot otherwise.
The boy's face should probably be better lit. The backgound is distracting despite it being slightly out of focus could you have blurred it more? or have chosen a simpler background. I like his expression.
Surface tension study? In either event, point well conveyed and appropriate for challenge theme. Lighting improvement: I suggest using a fill flash to better illuminate your subject. It may alter the reflections on the bubbles adversely, or it may actually improve it. In either event, there is strong available back lighting afforded by the sun and thus the exposure on the child's face suffers.
