This lighting circuit comprises a current source and a thermal sensing element. The thermal sensing element senses the temperature of a semiconductor light source. The current source generates a drive current that shows a positive correlation with the temperature when the temperature is in a normal range and that shows a negative correlation with the temperature when the temperature falls within a temperature range higher than the normal range.
