Bioluminescence is a natural phenomenon produced by oceanic organisms like dinoflagellates when they’re disturbed by movements in the water. Chemical reactions inside their bodies emit this cool blue or greenish light. You can see bioluminescence all over the world, but you have to look in the right places at the right times — usually mid to late summer. Dark or cloudy nights are the best times to see bioluminescence. ⁠ @cosmos | Upstate Diary
