Fireflies use periodic flashing to attract mates, dinoflagellates
cause the seas to aparkle and anglerfish use bioluminescence
lures to attract prey. The emission of light is used by
many organisms for a variety of reasons. The Living Lights
photography exhibition explores some of these things – and
how understanding these mesmerising displays can bring real
world benefits in diverse areas of science and medicine – in a
wonderful display of some of the greatest light shows on earth.

Various artists.
