Fireflies
Mass of fireflies on a warm slightly rainy night.
While there are a few high fliers, most of the activity seems to happen below 5-6 feet or thereabouts. So I thought I'd have a go shooting with a telephoto straight across the field. This is just over a 5 degree field of view on the diagonal, focused off in the distance so the larger the blob, the closer the firefly.
It's also 25 minutes worth of activity, but over such a small section of the field, you can imagine they were really on the pull!
