We've been talking about not seeing any fireflies this season in Ann Arbor. Whatta ya know, they came out in thousands Saturday evening! Such a sight, reminded me of "a midsummer's night dream." (and of Woody Allen's, A Midsummer's Night Sex Comedy. ha-ha!) Couldn't resist trying to take video of their flashing magic. Hope this works!

  • Well done! About the only thing that you could have improved would have been if you filmed in the woods. Excellent choice of music, and ending the vid with the closing scene from Woody Allen's film was inspired. More!!

  • @kw19193 Would have preferred a better surroundings but it worked to my advantage: the lights from the adjacent parking lot allowed me to see the individual fireflies congregating. These insects love fields and grassy areas, aren't seen much in forests. Music, the film clip & this chance encounter all came together: knew I had to put it up on YouTube. :-)

  • @willypotts: Thank you. Truly glad you liked my little production. After all, I'm one of the least popular producers on YouTube. Nice to have visitors for a change. LOL!
