Great lighting. You really captured a moment here. Was this in Gion?

Actually, just in case you are interested, she is a Maiko (apprentice Geisha) and not a full Geisha.

Geisha wear wigs, but Maiko use their real hair.

Maiko also have more ornaments in their hair than Geisha do. The hair ornaments differ depending on the current season.
