Long exposure photograph showing a starry sky with the shadows of the Milky Way, and fireflies flashing in the vegetation below
"Many a night I saw the Pleiads, rising thro' the mellow shade,
Glitter like a swarm of fire-flies tangled in a silver braid."
-- in Locksley Hall by Alfred Tennyson

Interesting workshop on #fireflies in Italy 🇮🇹

The picture on the right is not technically firefly luminescence, but gnat larvae that I saw in the Smoky Mountains.

With a few months before summertime, we will continue exploring Winter Fireflies in the next few weeks.
