I wasn't too excited about the fireflies when editing the singles... but they grew on me pretty quick after the stacking. Thanks Helge... me too. My father in law had a couple of places in mind to shoot ... and when I saw the MF I knew it had to be in the shot. They sure don't make them like that anymore. jack5150 wrote in post #12518868 That is REALLY cool!!! Thanks Jack! rick_reno wrote in post #12522231 beautifully done. Thanks Rick. Aaron

I've found fireflies to be around 2-2.5 hrs after sunset, then they seem to really diminish. Thanks! First pic was at 9:15pm or about 20 minutes after sunset. I've been doing these off and on for about a year and a half and this was the first one I'd done in the summer... the mosquitos are pretty brutal around here. Also you don't have to pack a cooler in the winter smooth monkey wrote in post #12531892 great shot and i really like the bugs it kinda adds something more to the photo Thanks! Aaron

Also you don't have to pack a cooler in the winter  aa Aaron - at first I was irritated doing star trails in the summer, the fireflies +mosquito's like you mentioned, but then I embraced the fireflies and got this last July, seems here in SE Michigan fireflies aren't around till July.  Planes are another thing....that plane is headed into DTW via inbound/outbound over Lake Michigan flight path - I've been on those flights many times myself, and it was mid-way thru my images so removing it made a gap in the trails. If there was a site that showed flight paths inbound/outbound for airports sure would make imaging nice for us astrophotographers to avoid them, but I'm sure Homeland security would not allow that for reasons....

Wonderful shot Mike. Love the composition. Looks like the fireflies in your pic are about how they are in my backyard. Aaron
