On the last night everything came together. The weather cooperated. I had improved my method for focusing and composing in the dark with quick flashes from a powerful flashlight -- and I'd grown accustomed to insects on my face.
最后一晚所有的要素都到齐了。天气也很配合。我通过一盏强力闪光灯的快速闪光改善了我在黑暗中的对焦和构图--我已经习惯了脸上有虫子。

I was rewarded with the image you see here. Each speck of light is one of several bursts that a firefly makes as it travels within a 30-second exposure. You can trace the insects' paths: Some make small loops, like those in the bottom center of the frame, while others move steadily in one direction or another.
我的回报就是你看到的这张照片。每个光点都是一只萤火虫在30 秒的曝光时间内飞过时发出的其中一次闪烁。你可以追踪这些昆虫的路径：有些在绕小圈圈，像照片中间下方的那些，而其他的则往一个或另一个方向稳定地移动。
The first time I visited the fireflies, I didn't have the pressure of trying to capture and convey this wondrous scene. I was just immersed and completely enchanted. That will always be my favorite experience with these luminous creatures.
我第一次看见这些萤火虫时，并没有要捕捉与传达这个奇妙景象的压力。我只是沉浸其中、完全陶醉。那次和这些发光生物在一起的经验，将会是我最喜爱的一段。
