Flare on a runway with significant upslope

Hello,

I’m approaching my first 500hrs on Airbus320 and all is working good. My flare technique is pretty consistent: at around 50’ I shift my view to the opposite runway threshold and this significantly help to judge my flare point depending on closure rate. Then it’s only a matter to keep the attitude and let it touch. Works perfectly. However I have some troubles with a few runways with a significant upslope. Because while the technique is the same I see I touches firmly and soon, this especially by night when the slope is not so appearant. Do you have some advices on how I can avoid this illusion and adjust my flare with those particular runways?
