Firefly Photos

I didn't think it was practical to take pictures of fireflies (what I called “lightning bugs” growing up). I was wrong. Photographer Gregory Crewdson published a book of firefly pictures taken over a two-month period at his family's cabin in Becket, Massachusetts. (Samples at the Skarstedt Gallery.) Of course, now I want to try it. Maybe next year. Via Alec Soth, whom I found via the Magnum blog.
