The moment of spawning and ejaculation of "Mandarinfish". Just before that, eggs overflow from the female. The male ejaculates at the same time, and new life is born from there. The sight of a male and female surfacing through a gap in the coral, their bodies close to each other, is a precious moment. The actions of living things to preserve their lives show us not only the animals, but all living things with love. It seemed like a summer love affair to me, as it took place over a limited period from early summer to late summer.
After the age of 40, he started scuba diving at the recommendation of a friend.
Fascinated by the beautiful underwater world, he wants to convey the beauty to people who do not yet know the underwater world, so he self-taught to take underwater photographs.
From the spring of 2020, he started full-scale activities as an underwater photographer as a freelancer.
