Moth Trails at Night

Alex

Steve Irvine captured this amazing long exposure photo of moth trails at night. The National Geographic explains:

Fluttering wings leave lacy trails as moths beat their way to a floodlight on a rural Ontario lawn. The midsummer night’s exposure, held for 20 seconds, captured some of the hundreds of insects engaged in a nocturnal swarm.

I find it interesting that the pole vault "crossing bar" is soft and flexible, presumably to prevent injuries on unsuccessful vaults. You learn something every day. Thanx, Miss C.
