Synchronized Fireflies Over Chengdu Creek at Night

by Ralph McLeod

Silvery moonlight washes the stone breakwater near Chengdu, casting cool tones over the deep autumn creek bank below. Dozens of fireflies pulse in perfect unison along the water's edge, their amber flashes creating a rhythmic pattern against the dark water. The insects hover just above the reeds, their light stark against the shadowed vegetation. Bare branches from nearby trees frame the upper left, while the smooth concrete of the breakwater anchors the foreground. The water reflects the scattered bioluminescence in brief, shimmering streaks that break the stillness of the night surface.
