I like how this came out.

For anyone interested, I used a thin glass dish. Put 1/2cm of water in it and added a squirt of oil (I used flower oil).
I then balanced the dish on 2 mugs. This way it's off the table. I used a white sheet to put the dish and mugs on.
Next I used a light pointing down and under the dish so it bounces off the white sheet. Next I covered the light with a blue gel.
When all set up and the camera is in place on a tripod you give the oil and water a little stir. Wait a minute or two until it has stopped and you will patterns like this. (It's the oil separating from the water)
A nice little bit of abstact that looks great as your desktop background on you computer :)
