Berenice AbbottSoap Bubbles 1945-46 for Documenting ScienceAbbott wrote about the making of this photograph,‘This was made for Science Illustrated, long before the PSSC (Physical Science Study Committee) project.  It took at least three days and in a way it is a masterpiece of its kind.  The soap bubbles here are very small–actually this is a macrophotograph.  I set off a small flash underneath the glass pan holding the suds.  I made many exposures and most of them came out mushy.  This one finally worked, showing the structure of the suds perfectly’ (Hank O'Neal, Berenice Abbott, American Photographer, p. 231).Sotheby’s -- source link
