I never expected, when I started photographing soap, that my kitchen macro shots would become so popular!

Technically speaking, soap films consist of the colours and patterns arising naturally from the interference of reflected light rays from the front and rear surface of a thin film of water and soap held in a tiny frame (a 'bubble wand'). The inner circle which I use for my photos measures 18mm. Most of the shots are of tiny areas within that ring.
