Chengdu Surrounding Tour⎮Qingmen County Fireflies, a Flashback to Childhood Memories
Hello, I'm La Can-
As spring approaches, let's go on a self-drive to see fireflies with friends and rediscover our childhood memories
*
I'd like to recommend a hidden gem: Qingmen Tianchi Village. The fireflies here are many times more abundant than your childhood memories
If the fireflies at Tiantai Mountain are a class, then the fireflies in Qingmen are a whole group
I recommend driving there yourselves, La Can's road conditions are excellent, suitable for self-driving
Itinerary suggestion: Depart at 4 PM, drive 120km from Chengdu, about 2 hours by high-speed road to the destination
Navigation: Tianchi Village
Distance: Approximately 120km one way
Itinerary: You can depart at 4 PM, return to Chengdu at 12 AM, take turns driving
Tips
1/ The road conditions are excellent, there are also supermarkets and restaurants along the way, please bring snacks but be sure to take away the trash
2/ There are vendors selling fruits and snacks in the village, the prices are very reasonable, and the villagers are very friendly
3/ Arrive early to secure a parking spot at 10 yuan/vehicle
4/ The parking place to the firefly viewing spot is about 20 minutes walk, you can see fireflies along the way when it gets dark
5/ When you reach the terrace area, you can turn back

Photography equipment: songA6500+ Sigma 16 1.4 lens

Firefly shooting parameters
First, you need a tripod, then set your aperture to the maximum, your lens's maximum aperture, ISO to 4000-6000, shutter speed can be set to 30s, if it's too bright, reduce the exposure time, try 20s
The most important thing is to adjust the focus to infinity!
Single fireflies may not be much, so shoot 5-10 photos and stack them in PS
In PS, use the stacking method.
