I think it was about 5-6 minutes. The time between bursts is varying from 5-10 min.
This bubble is about 2 meters wide and rises up to maybe 60 cm (2ft) before it bursts.

Amazing natural phenomenon. But I find the photo rather flat,

The blue tones of the geyser bubble are quite beautiful against the dark and steamy natural landscape. The sky reflections in the waterpools adds wonderful textures to this shot as well. An interesting take on the challenge interpretation.

something to give perspective to the size of this bubble would've been cool!
