Fiery Stars

Love lost in summer evenings, too bright
to ignore, a lawn transforms
into a field of delicate, fiery stars.

Fireflies transform a yard into a field of delicate, fiery stars

So amazing Rick. It must have been very difficult to capture them like this, moving in a low light condition.

That is very beautiful. I thought at first glance that the fireflies were Fairy Slipper orchids.

First signs, summer is really here. Stirs our hearts, memories, too bright to forget. Nothing is ever lost, warm nights, stars, campfires and fireflies lead the way! This capture takes me there. SENSATIONAL!!
