Very nice, might be the best one yet! I really like the harder lines and definition of this one, it captures that ultra-industrial feel really well.

I don't photograph these things the same way you do, but here's a VR tube I shot a few weeks ago. This wasn't an attempt to create art; my (self-imposed) challenge was to capture as much of the colored glow as possible in a single frame with the limited DR of digital. I would rather shoot high contrast images like this with negative film, but those days are long gone. I'm still experimenting with various processes in post-processing to retrieve as much data as possible from the RAW image.
