that looks good. To take a pic, put a black piece of paper (Or other black flat object) beside the blade to reflect off of. If you want to go down the rabbit hole, I would do 5 more min in white vinegar, then a series of lemon juice etches. It still looks quite polished, and a slightly deeper etch will bring out a bit more contrast. It looks quite good now, but this rabbit hole is deep. This is fine as it is, but you MIGHT get a bit more out of it.
I was thinking the same thing, i can see more and more coming out, and was going to go to the vinegar, but here i am 4 hours deep into just trying to polish out the hamon. It took like 4 days of hand sanding to get it to 1500 LOL
