I was trying to mix oil and water in a bottle. When you shake it up, it creates such wonderful oil bubbles. I've seen many flat photos of oil and water, but the idea of shallow depth of field and bubbles going on and on sounded wonderful.

The problem is: the bubbles didn't stay long enough to shoot them!

This was a wonderful surprise (though judging by the huge number of low votes, I'm one of the only ones who thought that. :)

Anyway, it's a clear glass bottle. The image actually was the oil/water sliding down the glass. I was really excited that it made such a cool image. I saw a woman carrying a jug on her head, like a water bearer. My husband doesn't see it. But I really like it.

Thanks for the comments. :)

I wasn't feeling very abstract when I voted this challenge, and I really loved this image. I was your 10.

It's interesting and abstract for sure, but I'm not a big fan of the mostly white surfaces and the textures.

I find this interesting shapes, black and white really bring out the weirdness of this..to me, it looks like a different kind of glass object. What kind? I have no clue..
wish I could comment on the macro part of things, but I can't
