Burst mode for c10-15 seconds or until the buffer filled up. Manual focus.
Then focus merged a set of them in Affinity2. Depends on the burst mode speed - not every photo was merged. Sometimes every 3rd photo used.
NOTE: It wasn't that busy with birds either.

Yes, it does look like a grill pattern.
The random patterning was simply the empty pan after it had been used to boil rice and it was drained, then left on the heat to finish drying the rice more.
This close up photography can be fun 😇😇 No metal fatigue and I wasn't fatigued after my rice based meal

Bottom of a frying pan?
Lower one is of it through a grill type shelf...
The 2nd one is nowt to do with a grill, but an obvious conclusion following your thread of thoughts 1stEverPentax
BTW, the shutter speed was 1/400th sec

The Kingfisher was obliging and sat briefly on a nearby stick and then flew about a bit. One day, I WILL get a decent close up of a kingfisher in flight!!!! The shutter speed was 1/1500th sec.
The blooming Green Sandpiper was inconsiderate in flying out of the frame. I do like the water/mud droplets though, shutter speed was also 1/1500th sec.
