how vibrant is the Geisha tradition in Japan now? I've read it's on the decline.

Just a lovely shot of an elegant woman.

I think she looks better this way: her face was a bit too "old" for a maiko, in my opinion. I love how the katsura now creates balance in her face; she used to have a bit of a large forehead with the maiko hairstyle, but that's gone now. I love it :) I must say this photo is beautiful; you were really lucky to have her looking at you at the right moment. Thank you for sharing.
