This photo was one of nine photos that won second place in the Professional category "Nature and Wildlife" at the Sony World Photography Awards 2020. This photo was also featured as a banner image on almost every page of the Sony World Photography Awards throughout 2020.
The artwork is available in several sizes:
60 x 40cm: 9 copies, 90 x 60cm: 5 copies, 120 x 80cm: 3 copies, 150 x 100cm: 3 copies
I have a large-format Canon ImagePrograf PRO-4100 printer at home that can handle 112cm wide rolls of paper, so I print them myself with perfect color adjustment.
"HIMEBOTARU" is a small firefly with a body length of only 6 to 8 mm. That light is just a flash. Its body emits an unimaginably strong light for just a moment. himebotaru lives in forests rather than rivers, so its existence was largely unknown even though it lives throughout Japan. I didn't even know about the existence of these fireflies, which live in the forest just 100 meters from my home, until I was 50 years old. The way they dance wildly in the pitch darkness is truly mystical. I was really surprised when I saw it for the first time, and since then, photographing himebotaru has become my life's work.
It is very difficult to count living things in a certain place, but it is very easy to count the fireflies that glow as they fly at night. That's why fireflies are a barometer of rich nature and biodiversity. Female himebotaru cannot fly, so if a large road is built in their habitat, they will become extinct. This is caused by ``the fact that their existence is not known.'' For this reason, I have been researching and photographing the habitat of Himebotaru every night for two months from June to July for over 10 years. I believe that if people knew about the beautiful sight of dancing princess fireflies, they would be able to protect them.
Photographing himebotaru is difficult because the princess fireflies do not fly until it is completely dark, so the common method was to photograph the background while it was still bright and then synthesize the light from the princess fireflies into a comparatively bright image. I used to take pictures that way, but 8 years ago I started taking single shots by adjusting the ISO sensitivity and exposure time.
Himebotaru's light is the "light of life". It is a courtship light that takes its life as an adult for just one week. There is the beauty of the ``momentary moment'' and ``the awareness of things,'' but above all, there is the ``mystery of nature.'' There are few things a photographer can do when taking a photo, and himebotaru's photos are "landscapes drawn by himebotaru."

Hiroike is a Japanese photographer born in 1962. In 2020, he was selected as a finalist at the Sony World Photography Awards, the world's largest photo contest, and began his career as a photographer. In 2023, he was selected as the winner of the Dutch photo contest "LensCulture Critics' Choice" by Darius Himes of the auction house "Christie's". Solo exhibitions organized by museums in Japan and Poland have been held. In 2024, he made his debut as a writer for the 90-year-old "Yamakei Calendar", becoming one of Japan's leading landscape photographers.
Hiroike encountered computers at the Faculty of Engineering at Hiroshima University, and has been involved in the development of industrial robots, CAD, and WEB systems as a systems engineer for over 30 years. He began taking photographs in earnest after developing many photo display programs.
Since childhood, he has enjoyed outdoor sports such as stream fishing, cycling, and mountain climbing. He has built his own log house in the forest of his own design and has lived with nature. He has a reverence for nature and mainly photographs the rare nature and landscapes of Japan, which are rare in the world. Inspired by Japanese paintings such as sumi-e, Hiroike approaches them with a uniquely Japanese aesthetic sense, such as "Utsuroi" (transition) and "Wabi-Sabi".
At the same time, he incorporates random and unpredictable elements, and studies and shoots surrealist photography. In particular, he creates abstract works by expressing "afterimages", one of the human visual phenomena, through ICM (Intentional Camera Movement).
Landscape photography is done by investigating and studying various conditions, and thinking it through logically, but if you take it to the extreme, your field of vision becomes narrow. Surrealism stimulates the photographer's own sensibilities, unearths a sleeping aesthetic sense from the unconscious, and broadens the scope of expression. Landscape photography and surrealist photography seem to be contradictory, but for Hiroike, they are the two wheels of a car that allows him to continue to express himself at a higher level.
As an engineer in Japan, a country of cameras, he is also committed to "high-definition photography". While shooting with high-resolution digital cameras, he also puts more effort into output than anyone else. He has a print studio in his home, where he uses a large printer and panel mounting machine to print, panelize, and frame 2m x 1m works.
