These glimmering firefly lights give an aura of enchantment to this shadowed night-time scene. Congratulations on 2nd place, Sarah! :-)
peacoquettedesigns says:
Thanks again, yall! @KoalaLady - the funny thing is that I have only made the Top Ten three other times - one was Urban Sightings, one was the scanned nature contest and one was the black and white contest - all of which had photo based entries. I guess we know what I am good at! :)

*Takes the imaginary podium*
Oh, wow! I didn't expect this! Thank you to everyone who voted for me and left such beautiful comments for me today! I can't believe I placed second with a design that I didn't even make for the contest. I would like to thank all of my friends in the Synergy Challenge Project. I don't think this design would exist if it weren't for their enthusiasm, inspiration and camaraderie! (You can find out more about the project by clicking the links above.) Most of all, I am so grateful that this design was about fireflies (that's lightning bugs down here in the South!) They are part of my personal mythology and are very special to me.
Thank you again!

Thanks, Karen! It is bittersweet because that tree was torn down a few weeks after I took the picture! But the fireflies are still out!

Thank you, AnnieDeb. I am hoping to make a dress out of this for my daughter to wear for her birthday party this summer in peak firefly weather in the backyard where I took the picture of the trees!
peacoquettedesigns says:
Thank you, Sef and Su! Those are trees in my neighbors' yards and I am just waiting for the fireflies to show up any week now!

The combination of tree silhouettes and firefly glow-balls is very effective! :-D
