Maiko Mameyuri of Gion Kobu.

Photo taken by the Master, Onihide. He died on Dec. 21th, 2010. A great artist and person, he will be truly missed. I had a chance to talk to him a bit on Flickr, he was always so kind and answered my every stupid question with a great patience.

Rest in Peace, Hidenori-san!
