That's very effective and dramatic.
Was the filament being under-run - ie: at a low voltage? It looks less luminous than I would have expected a fully powered filament to be, at that exposure. Nice definition of the coiled tungsten. I assume that the slightly oof inverted image is a reflection off the back of the glass bulb?

Hello Martin, bulb was 'dimmed' offering near minimum lighting, I wanted to try and pick up all of the coils of tungsten within the bulb. There is some reflection in the bulb, I've an idea how to try and avoid that, so might revisit this subject matter in due course.
