So happy to finally have created an image I've had in mind for a while! This is a composite of four photographs, ranging from a earlier dusk 1/10 sec (because dogs do not stay still for *that* long) and three once the fireflies started en masse which were 10-30 second exposures to keep the general exposure tone of the scene the same between them as the sun set. NO AI - I manually stacked the images on my own :) I don't let computers make my art for me. #photography #longExposure #dog #dogs #DogsOfMastodon #fireflies #goldenHour #entomology #science #nature

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪲✨ #Fireflies are actually bioluminescent #beetles, not #flies. Entomologist Clyde Sorenson from #NorthCarolina State University explains that #larvae glow to warn #predators of their #toxic taste, while #adults use species-specific flash patterns as a #mating ritual, with some predatory “femme fatale” fireflies mimicking other species’ signals to lure and eat males. 👉 https://www.popsci.com/environment/why-fireflies-glow/ #bioluminescence #insects #lightningbugs #nature #science #entomology #wildlife #animals #biology #luciferin #summer

Sat outside and watched the fireflies do their thing tonight. There's this precise moment in summer evenings where everything goes quiet and the air shifts. Hard to capture, easy to miss. #SummerNights #Nature #Fireflies
