Photographed off the coast of Okayama, Japan, The Weeping Stones is a photo series by the creative duo Trevor Williams and Jonathan Galione of Tdub Photo that captures the eerie blue light emitted by a native species of bioluminescent shrimp.
More commonly referred to as sea fireflies, these rare creatures live in the sand in shallow sea water, floating somewhere between the extremes of high and low tide.
At just 3 mm in length the shrimp are extremely small light sources, but when grouped together they take on abstract patterns that light up the water around them.

Very interesting photo and setting! @natepowell. The sun is setting and the shrimps are dancing among the waves and get caught in changiing tides.
Life goes on! Very confusing feeling when looking at this photo.
Cheers.
