At least the arc has burnt the cobwebs ;-)
Hope the stainless steel tubing (with the laboratory clamps) in the
background are not the intake of an air-pollution monitor. If it was, it
may ring an alarm due to a sudden NOx increase..
Nice pictures with the Nikon D700 !
Cheers,

Seems i need some improvements on the spark gap of my LF antenna.
Depending on the humidity and wind there is some arcing during the
transmissions. These look very fascinating i find. Anyway i have to
add a spherical electrode there and increase the gap distance,
especially for VLF ;-)
A working colleague of me is a (semi) proffessional photographer
(hobby) and i asked him to take some nice pictures. He has an
excellent equipment i find but he means he should have taken a
different lens for these pictures. Anyway, i really like them.
When arcing at the ends of a LF antenna is discussed, sometimes a
picture can help a newcomer what is meant. Here are some more
examples, in high resolution (abt. 3 MB each)
