Bought a small glass bowl. Cut a whole in a box (no songs please, no junk was put in the box! LOL!). Placed the dish in the whole to about a half inch below the rim. Placed a stand of small, multicolored decorative lights in the box. Put warm water in the bowl and liquid dish soap, a good dose. Took a straw and blew air into the liquid to make the bubbles. Turned the lights out. Took pictures. Camera on tripod with manual remote.
Three sessions of images. The first set, last night, just had the bowl and bowls on a box with the lights surrounding it. Two sessions with the lights in the box and the bowl in the hole at the top of the box. One this morning and one tonight. This is from this morning. I shoot to excess....probably means its time for a new camera.

Super! This is the best of this type of image I have seen so far. Several people have tried, but you are the first to have go it right :-) It has the sharpness, the great colours, the contrast, everything.
