Equipped with a 1920s-era electrotherapy device purchased on eBay, photographer Marc Simon Frei has captured a series of mini-storms.
Frei generated electrical storms and captured them using a Nikon Df, a macro extension tube and a Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens.
He is a photographer living in Altdorf in Switzerland.
