beautiful isn't she

with respect to Momoyama's pictures and thanks to ~Fuyou-hime for helping me out in that i should probably post a link to the original source [[link] ] . Momoyama's pictures are really well known amoung geisha enthusiasts, and this photo of Umeraku is one of the better known ones taken of her. There are some geisha enthusiasts that would rip you a new one for not linking to the original source, since these photos are stolen regularly .

thanks agian ~Fuyou-hime

flower / people / hair / red / pink / beauty : maiko (geisha apprentice) kyoto, japan / canon 7d 　日本・京都　舞妓梅らくさん

The maiko (apprentice geisha) Umeraku. Together with other maiko and geiko (geisha) of the Kamishichiken district, she was hosting an open air tea ceremony at Kitano Tenmangu Shrine in Kyoto, Japan.

As Umeraku is a first year maiko, only her lower lip is painted red.

The colourful flower hairpins that decorate the hair of maiko (apprentice geisha) are known as hana kanzashi. These flower ornaments change monthly to express the season. Umeraku wears a kanzashi of plum blossom flowers for February.

Kyoto was the capital of Japan from 794 until 1868. It is now the seventh largest city in Japan. In Kyoto geisha are known as geiko and trainee geisha are known as maiko.
