I learned that bubbles are incredibly difficult to work with. Not only placing them in the desired places, but taking the picture before one of them pops. I took approximately 50 shots, before losing my patience with inadequate lighting. Eventually, I set up a lamp from above, and a smaller lamp from behind, and came up with what you see here.

This is really beautiful, and really fascinating. It's also very, very visually "busy" - I'm really not sure where the negative space is supposed to be in this. If it were just the black-and-white pattern, I'd take the white for negative space, but whatever the layer is over it adding distortion, it seems to disturb the flow of my eyes over the photo enough to keep from really settling on that.
