Artist's Comments
Okay so it's really hard to get pictures of the geisha/maiko. They walk REALLY fast. I don't know how many horribly blurred photos I took, but man. Who knew they could manage such speed, considering how precarious their shoes look?
This photo was taken by one of my group members; he was kind enough to share it with us, and I thought it was lovely so I wanted to share it here. Taken in Gion District, Kyoto, Japan. |

yep, she's maiko-- geisha wear less frills and less busy fabric.
the shot was fabulous-- although she doesn't seemed too thrilled with being photographed, she seems resigned to the fact.
without the two obviously modern electrical outlet/devices and maybe the (small/plain) hinges on the shutters (and a bit of aging), this could be a photograph from meiji era-- you would have to make it look like it was hand-tinted/painted for the kimono, hana-kanzashi (the flowers w/streaming leaves ornament) and birra-birra (fancy hairpin) to have color...

reality is in the eye of the beholder. beware the reality challenged!
everyone should contact the anime networks and demand more 'rurouni kenshin'!!
