Thanks for all the votes and comments! Okay, some have asked how I did this, quite simple. I had a flat pan of water and next to the pan I had a softbox on which I placed some colored plastic strips. The colors from the strips are reflected onto the water where I placed a few bubbles.

Wow, just one bubble! I like it how the top and bottom of the bubble reflect the background colours. And I LOVE the circle of colours around the inside/outside of the bubble. Amazing how bubbles, even though they must be very light, still have weight and create a "dimple" in the liquid. Simple, effective and beautiful.
