21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Yuki Yanagi

A portrait for the very beautiful geiko Tomitae. This is one of the most famous and popular geishas of all time . She's been a geisha for about 10 years now, and I have known her for about 8 years, photographing her each time I come to Kyoto. Ever so elegant and enchanting, she turns heads wherever she goes.
