Driving through the narrow streets of the old town in Kyoto, we came across this Maiko (apprentice Geisha) posing demurely for photos. A small crowd had gathered taking pictures and admiring her pristine costume. The gathering came to an abrupt end when a local taxi driver parked between the Maiko and the photographers, and told them in abusive terms that they shouldn't be blocking narrow streets.
