Resumen de Flashing for sex
Here, Hooper features Belgian photographer Katrien Vermeire's shots of fireflies in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee. The pictures are part of a sequence of work under the name Godspeed--an expression used by one of the forest rangers she spent time with. In this species (Photinus carolinus) the light show is particularly remarkable because the males--sometimes thousands at a time--synchronize their flashes. In the dark pause between flashes, the females reply with their own, dimmer signals.
