2081 - It's Magic


Yesterday I was a tad late for swimming, but really, swimming after sundown, almost at night, has its own charms. When I took this image, handheld at 1/4s, I saw tiny flickering lights around me: fireflies! Pretty magic, if you ask me.

It was so dark under the trees, I didn’t even try to take an image. Probably I should have. Probably I’ll try tomorrow. Probably the opportunity is gone. Who knows.

The Song of the Day is “It’s Magic” by Dinah Washington. Like so many of her songs it’s marred by an over-abundance of strings, but then you hear her magic voice and then nothing else matters 🙂

Hear it on YouTube.

That looked pretty magical even before you mentioned the fireflies 🙂
