Sometimes, the magic is right in our back yard. That's actually what prompted me to start my #etbtsy hash tag a few years ago. It stands for Enjoy The Beauty That Surrounds You. If you want to find my work on Instagram, Facebook, or even just Googling on the Internet, tey #etbtsy.

It was not different this late evening. Going for a walk in the woods across the street later than usual as dusk was settling in had us witness this unbelievable show taken straight out from a fairy tale. I took a mental note about the time, and headed back a night later with my camera and was happy to see it again.

Magical Forest FirefliesA Wonderful Mid-Summer Firefly Show

It was such a wonderful experience that this became our favorite activity for a few nights in the row. At first, the show was as powerfl as the first night we saw it. Then, there were fewer and fewer. It seems like we were rewarded for not giving up on walking that first evening and cauht th fireflies at their peak.
