Thanks, Al! Sadly, we don't get a lot of lightning bugs in my neck of the woods.

Sorry, I'm not seeing it. :(

Joel Lynn, look at the moonlight reflecting on the person's head and nose on the left. The white diagonals are the arms. The lower diagonal is the right arm and shoulder, and she's holding a jar, with the left hand holding the lid, ready to catch a firefly.

I tried to get one in the jar, but it competed with his hand and the jar itself. :)

Thanks, Teresa, for the explanation. I can make it out now. Honestly, I tried and tried before, squinted at it, etc., but just couldn't see it.

The way you did this is so creative. Amazing originality.
thanks for a great puzzle.
Joel, it took me a minute to see it too.

Thanks! I knew I was going to do a night scene so I made the grid solid black and took away the white squares. The b&w version looked too stark so I added blue to soften it and help the boy stand out. It looked weird with a big moon in the corner so I removed it and turned the black clouds into a tree.

I had to have the explanation, too. Thanks, Teresa. It is cool after you (or should I say I?) see it.
