I'm faving your fireflies... last week I was for the first time in my life surrounded by fireflies... thousands of them. One of the most beautiful and enchanting moments in my life

Yes, the mystic feeling you experienced keeps me enchanted 5 years in row, by now.
Thank you for the faves

What a fantastic image! I would like to use this as the basis for a stage backdrop for my band. Is it possible to send as high a resolution image as possible. Let me know for how much and how to pay. Thanks, Colin

Hi Colin!
The max resolution of this image is 3456×2304. I sent you a note to your DA account for further discussion.
(Since you are new to DA I thought to mention it.)

I've sent you a note informing you that this piece has been featured!
I did a huge feature for the group, so it was split into two entries. And I gave a few people the wrong links. So just in case this applies to you, if you don't find your work in the one entry, it will be in the other:
Part 1
Part 2
Sorry about that

This whole gallery is gorgeous! I miss fireflies. They are epic win.

Wow, the title fits this beautiful picture.
I adore the way the fireflies stand out from the dark desolate night, completely eye-catching. Their colour is a huge wow factor, I've never seen a limeish green colour group of fireflies, or even fireflies for that matter!
I love this, keep up the awesome fireflies work.

I love your firefly series!
It's so amazing to see them on photographs. Somehow I never thought of this. But it looks just awesome~

This was actually shot on the planet Earth?
Extraterrestrials do exist!
Great capture

How long did you have your shutter speed open for to capture their lights? In the summer it's like a small ocean of fireflies where I live and I've tried to capture them but...it just doesn't work 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well 3-5 sec and of course ISO 4000
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
grr! my camera only goes to an ISO of 3200 lol Thanks!!!! 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, in this picture I used ISO 1600 and a longer exposure. It is possible to do these pictures with "low" ISO but in that case it is more challenging ...

I thought you were referring to Summer Nights Dream II. The first 10 pictures in my fire fly gallery are taken at ISOs >3200 (5DII) and the rest just by a 350D/(Rebel XT)

It is very beautiful.
Where was this taken, if I may ask?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thx!!
It was taken in some forest near Nuremberg, Germany, 1st of june 2006;
The fireflies are flying around this time in this region.

Wow, very nice. I live much too far from Germany. It's snowing like crazy where I am. Nope, no fireflies here.

As far as Wiki tells there should be some fireflies in the USA, of course presumably somewhere in the south...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, then I wish I lived in the south! North east for me.

Maybe you could go at some time in the future on holidays in a region where they have fireflies. You just have to time it right.
(here is the wiki article [link] )
What I would really like to see is the blinking and spontaneous synchronisation of some kinds of fireflies.
Here in Germany they just give off a constant light while flying. This gives the (at this time already very quiet and dark) forest quite a mystic or even eerie atmosphere.
It should be a sight to see them blinking in unison...

Oh my goodness! I didn't know they held a constant light in Germany. I would love to see that! In about 6 months, when summer comes, then the fireflies should come out. They blink in unison. That's the only way I've ever seen them. I can't imagine what it would be like to see them where you live! And thanks alot for the imformation

Maybe the blinking is more common than I thought. Wow!
