The fireflies typically light up at evening, and they can control their light by flashing it in patterns – saving energy and communicating with each other, Japan, June 2016. Thousands of dancing fireflies in Japan create an enchanted forest. Photographer Kei Nomiyama, 37, has visited the Japanese island Shikoku every year since 2012 to capture the mesmerising images of thousands of fireflies glowing in the forest. Fireflies produce a “cold light” from their bodies, which is a chemically produced light that can shine bright yellow, green, or red. The light is created due to a type of chemical reaction called “bioluminescence”, and was originally believed to be used for warning purposes, but now its main purpose is thought to be used in mate selection.
