Very nice closeup shot! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Max, it's interesting how the luck of timing with the mains cycle and camera shutter can capture very different arc intensities.

What I've done in the past is to take a short video and pull the best frame from it.

That is a nice trick Ria. I've done that for the hard to catch moments too.
