A good sense of the feminine side of the Japanese tradition. Like the lighting on the left edge of the shot. Bravo!

Exquisite ... the interplay of light and shadow bring such depth into the composition.

I am sorry I have missed the last few days... busy with work etc but I see what I have missed are some great shots... this is always a delight to see... the Kimono... I had friends growing up who were from Japan and living in Australia for only a few years and I would watch them dress in this... this is where I got to learn to count to 50 in Japanese, say a few Japanese words and when I stayed over night at their house it was like you were stepping living in Japan... a great experience... one day I hope to get there...

I like much your framing, and Kimono textures it is retranscribed perfectly by your photographic art. Still ;)

Again, I say this is such a wonderful series.
Your framing iindicates a certain playfulness, even coy.
Wonderful.
