As part of the recent Tokyo Hotaru Festival, 100,000 illuminated blue LEDs were released in the Sumida River. The impressive installation was made to resemble fireflies (hotaru) and looked like a blur on the river when viewed from a distance.
The spheres were 100% powered by solar energy and lighted up upon contact with water. For those of you worried about pollution or safety, the lights were later caught downstream by giant nets.
