Do-It-Yourself Fantasia
The other night a bunch of us went down to the sea to see the phosphorescence. ChrisCorrigan might be posting more on the science of it all. Something about plankton soaking up sunlight all day and then releasing it when agitated by our bodies squirming through their seawater. We agitated quite a bit the other night, making huge streams of fantasmic lighting with arms and legs and rocks and sticks underwater. Our every underwater move dissolved into waves of streaming firefly light and when we emerged, the tricklings left fields of sparkles on our arms and legs and bellies. Even the sand lit up when we scraped it. Bowen Island as Magic Kingdom.
