Like a scene from a fairytale, THOUSANDS of fireflies create an enchanting glow as they dance in a forest. The majestic photographs were captured by photographer Mars Lin, on a trip to the Dasyue Mountains, in Wulai, Taiwan. The 34-year-old says: “When I look at these photographs I feel peaceful, delighted and pure. “When you take a break and hold your breath and just look at how much beauty is surrounding you it’s astonishing.
