Fireflies, Flint Hills

FLINT HILLS, KANSAS, USA -- Fireflies flash their mating patterns over the Wild Alfalfa in the Flint Hills of Kansas. Taken at the Tallgrass Preserve near Strong City, the photo is a 76 second time exposure. It was so dark I couldn't see through viewfinder and had to focus by sheer guess. Taken a good hour after sunset the light was extremely blue adding to the natural blue of the alfalfa. You can see more at my web site: www.jimrichardsonphotography.com
