My name is Masahiro Hiroike. I am a system engineer and photographer living in Tottori prefecture, Japan. I was developing a system to display photos in a slide show, which inspired me to take photos in earnest. I mainly shoot landscapes, nature and wildlife. Especially, I\'m looking for an art scene created by nature. I held three large photo exhibitions at the museum in 2021. At that time, I couldn\'t move because of the coronavirus, so I converted my garage into a printing studio and introduced a large printer and a panel-pasting machine. I can make a photo panel of up to 1mx2m.
