got these plastic colored beads...and tried shooting them a number of different ways..but my final choice was the one where i filled the glass with dish soap and a bit of water...this produced the bubbles....i also shot this in direct sunlight...using a small mirror to reflect light from the side too...i liked the end result...hope you do too!

8 - Nice. Criticism (somewhat difficult with abstracts); really only the couple of reflections which are a fraction too bright in my opinion, but minor anyway. Perhaps more height, not sure. More finely tuned crop, especially on the left.
