The reason why democrats are similar to republicans is because both parties are
mostly christians. I only vote for which party I hate the least. There is a slight difference. The republicans are a-holes and the democrats are pussys.

funny thing is that the picture visually gains a lot from the artifacts caused by a camera move during exposure. If it was on a tripod, it wasn't properly fixed ;)
There are actually twice as much light dots than there were fire-flies, as you can tell by intensity and geometric displacement of the dots. [/blabla]

very charming pic, simply captures the magic of the light those bugs spread :)

cheers, Tom

no Huub, it isn't
the vertical displacement of the reflections would vary over the scene
they are all identical
some of those are clearly within the bushes
and finally - fireflies don't move their a** over water, for good reasons :D

sorry for the rational bs on an almost magical scene, Tom :oops:
