He captured the interweaving of the fascinating architecture, space, and light from his artist’s perspective. Featuring 41 new photographs, this volume documents and communicates the museum’s architectural value and cultural significance, as well as passing on its universal value to future generations.

映画「秒速5センチメートル」のSpecial Visualを撮影しました。監督・奥山由之さんの発案により映画の内容に合わせ、すれ違う様々な時間を多重露光することで1枚のフィルムに露光しました。I photographed the Special Visual for the film “5 Centimeters per Second.”
Conceived by director Yoshiyuki Okuyama, the image was created in response to the film’s narrative by exposing multiple, intersecting moments of time onto a single frame of film through multiple exposure.
The new NTT East Japan television commercial has begun airing.
Mikiya Takimoto was responsible for the cinematography of the NTT East Japan Group CM,

The film portrays NTT East Japan’s initiatives in the fields of food and agriculture, developed in close collaboration with local communities, with the aim of realizing a sustainable society. Created to be delivered to the children who will shape the future, the commercial presents a hopeful vision of the next generation of innovation.
