I have always been a fan of the way Oil played with light. It was nice to be able to capture it...

Didn't leave comments on this challenge but just wanted to say that it got a high vote from me as i like this image a lot. The colors are rich and it's a great abstract. I notice some banding and struggled with that myself in a few images. Anything one can do about that?
Wow! What colors - what is mongolian fire oil? that is likely to be a unique liquid in the challenge. I wonder a little at your choice of composition - but perhaps the cropping of all but one bubble makes the viewer wonder what lies beyond the edges of the photo. It works! 9
This is a beautiful abstract -- the colors are really rich and the cropping is done well. The minuses for me are that it's hard to say that this describes or explains liquid to me (even though it IS liquid, you'd have to tell someone for them to know it), and that the reflection-in-a-bubble-over-blurry-background thing has really been played in the last few challenges, making it feel a touch cliche to me through no fault of your own. Overall, it's a very nice photo and I've scored you pretty high. :)
It doesn't really look all that liquidy to me except for the very bottom of the top center droplet. It's an interesting idea, though, and would make a great abstract piece.
Wow. Neat shot. Saw this exact same concept on psig today too. Maybe it's yours too, but if not check it out //www.photosig.com/go/photos/view?id=931844.
Love the color in this shot. I'm a huge fan of color and this take the cake. I especially love the background. Very nice vivid colors, and nothing distracting.
I only wish that the large bubble in the middle didn't have that white line that makes it look 'not round'. That little tiny part is a bit distracting, but hey, what can you do? Great job.
