Soap films on a pyramid
Soap film on a pyramid frame. Soap bubbles form sheets of minimum surface area when stretched between two points. Therefore, when stretched between straight metal wires they will form flat planes. The iridescent bands are caused by reflected light interfering with itself. The differing colours are due to gradients of thickness in the film, caused by gravity

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Soap films on a pyramid" captures the mesmerizing beauty of soap bubbles forming sheets of minimum surface area when stretched between two points. The intricate details showcased in this image are truly remarkable. The pyramid frame, constructed with straight metal wires, provides the perfect platform for these soap bubbles to transform into flat planes. As light interacts with the soap film, it creates stunning iridescent bands that dance across the surface. These bands exhibit varying colors due to gradients of thickness caused by gravity's influence on the film. In this artistic representation of physical and chemical phenomena, we witness an enchanting blend of mathematics and physics at play. The mathematical principles governing minimal surface area and interference patterns merge seamlessly with the physical effects produced by soap films. This photograph serves as a visual testament to how science can unveil breathtaking wonders in our everyday world. It reminds us that even seemingly mundane occurrences like soap bubbles hold hidden treasures waiting to be discovered through scientific exploration. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this extraordinary moment where art meets science, showcasing its profound impact on our understanding of nature's intricacies.
