Long Term Exposure of Mating Gold Fireflies
Japanese photographer Yuki Karo goes to various places around Maniwa and Okayama Prefectures in Japan and uses long exposure to capture some stunning shots of mating gold fireflies.
Sharing because it’s beautiful & Summer is almost here!
don’t walk around like you do now thinking, wow, nature is so beautiful, i love stars and sunrises and sunsets and forests and morning mist and the ocean waves and animals and all of these precious unique natural beautiful things… I love them so much i go camping just to see them and post instagrams of them and wow i just love nature
and then go and stand in front of a mirror and tear apart your own body and find ‘flaws’ and destroy yourself over not meeting some bizzare perfection.
We are as much (!) products of nature (!!) as sunrises and thunderstorms and butterflies and gorgeous flowing rivers and all of these things we admire and obsess over every day !!!
You do not go to forests and decide they’re not enough as a forest because one tree is out of line! You do not look at bunnies and think they’re less fluffy and amazing if they have a crooked tooth or a tail that’s a different colour to the other bunnies!!! Stop doing this to yourself because at the end of the day we’re just another bunch of crazy living things the earth has produced and so we need to think of ourselves with the same wonder with which we think of rolling hills and mountains and treetops.
The same nature we romanticize and love is within us as much as it is around us! x
I am so honoured to know you my love foster-the-morning
literally just stalked your whole blog because I really needed to reblog this again
So beautiful!!! Thanks for this 💖
It’s just this strange thing I do where I allow myself to briefly fall in love with another human being that I see on a train, or the sidewalk, or in a warm café.
NOT ALL WOMEN ARE BEAUTIFUL
SOME ARE PROBLEMATIC
SOME TREAT CHILDREN LIKE SHIT
SOME BEAT ANIMALS
SOME ARE RACIST
SOME ARE ANTI-FEMINISTS
SOME ABUSE EVERYONE
SOME ARE MANIPULATIVE
NOT ALL WOMEN ARE PERFECT
NOT ALL MEN ARE PERFECT
TUMBLR SCREAMS ABOUT HOW ALL WOMEN ARE GORGEOUS FLOWERS WITH NO PROBLEMS
TUMBLR SCREAMS ABOUT HOW ALL MEN ARE DISGUSTING PIGS THAT ARE THE SOURCE OF OUR PROBLEMS
NOT ALL WOMEN ARE PERFECT
NOT ALL MEN ARE REPULSIVE

1. I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.
2. I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape ill health.
3. I am of the nature to die. There is no way to escape death.
4. All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to escape being separated from them.
5. My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground upon which I stand.
You tried to change didn’t you?
closed your mouth more
tried to be softer
prettier
less volatile, less awake
but even when sleeping you could feel
him travelling away from you in his dreams
so what did you want to do, love
split his head open?
you can’t make homes out of human beings
someone should have already told you that
and if he wants to leave
then let him leave
you are terrifying
and strange and beautiful
something not everyone knows how to love.
im literally always looking at my reflection not because im conceited but because i just think it feels kind strange to have a physical form and im constantly trying to process who and what i am
It’s strange because sometimes, I read a book, and I think I am the people in the book.
