Everyone remembers the joys of childhood and blowing bubbles in the backyard to pass the time. Laughing with one and other when they popped. Or competing to see who's go grow the biggest or last the longest. For Swiss photographer Fabian Oefner the innocence of childhood never left. Using a series of high speed flash units Oefner was able to capture the moment soap bubbles form then burst to create some visually stunning images.

The formation of a soap bubble.

Oefner uses a pourer to produce the bubbles.

Lights were placed all around the bubbles to show the colors swirling in them.
