I saw this technique somewhere online this week, and thought I would try it out. I grabbed a glass, mixed just a small amount of water and hand soap and shut myself in a bathroom with the lights off. I needed a small amount of light, so I placed my iPhone under the glass with a screen that had minimal light turned on. I was able to get within an inch of the bubbles with the camera (using a macro extension tube), and snap the photo. Might have to try this again sometime!

Neat! I never would have guessed that it was a glass full of bubbles. Looks like drops of water on textured plastic.
Very well done!
I think that is very cool. It almost looks 3D.
I wondered what in the world you were doing in there…
