Dance of life

Slowish shutter speed captures the flapping wings of insects swarming a lamp on the shore of the Andaman Sea on Lanta island in Krabi, Thailand. They lose their wings after a short time and then fall to the ground and slowly return to earth after their completed mission. Our eyes might easily miss just how elaborate and beautiful their dance is. (Apr-2012, max A3 recommended)
