Yes, very nice. Strange how you see the guide wires 'aiding/accelerating' the expansion of the explosion, however, I would also have expected a 'better' example of that from the main framework structure. Yet we don't really see anything like that in the first picture where I would expect to see evidence of it occuring even before it does on the guidewires. :? There could be a plethora of reasons why this happens - different materials etc., but strange nonetheless.
