Cable release, rapid frame rate, a box of matches - what more could a bloke ask for?

I think I'd best re-join the R.F.S.

Looks like you lit the match from the other end and let it reach the head so that it can ignite, is this correct Peter?
I like that idea.

Spot on RB . I used a self gripping wrench to hold the match and then lit another match and ignited the base of the first match. Everything was all preset so all I had to do was hold down the cable release.

Next step is to have some meths in a little eye dropper and photograph it as the meths is squirted over the match.
