Synchronized Fireflies

This movie was originally uploaded by user "khsfrst", but the source was quite dark. I downloaded it and color corrected it, and the results are much clearer, I think. These are Great Smokey Mountain Synchronized Fireflies.

Wow, that is so amazing. If anyone's interested, I know there's this book called "Sync" by Steven Strogatz, which is about how order emerges in things. I haven't read much of it at all, but it opens with him talking about how literally millions of fireflies in places will flash in sync. At any rate, great video.

Not knowing what your footage is like it's difficult to say... in this case the original source was very dim, and had a lot of noise. The trick was to pump up the gamma ( the mid tones) while preserving the blacks (and thus not amplifying the noise). If you want to share a short sample clip with me I'd be happy to evaluate it and offer some advice.
