Geisha's are taught the subtleties of Japanese culture including tea ceremony, flower arrangement, calligraphy, poetry and performing dance and music.
Or.....How to get five Geisha Girls to pose for a book mark ? Or.....Line 'em up and knock 'em down Domino Girls ? Nope. They are the 5-Ball version of a Human DANGO with the stick pulled out. Huh ? Ok.....So I lived in Japan too long. It makes you start seeing things.... especially when you get hungry. See : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dango 団子....... mmmmmm, yummy !

This is another large-format Salt Print from the 1890s. Looks better on black. Photo attributed to the younger SHINICHI SUZUKI whose studio went out of business in 1896. The "ALL SIZES" button will show you that the colorists were in a hurry to get home, as the tinting is not as fine as on most of the other Salt Prints in my posts. In fact, it's a bit sloppy. However, if you can get that technicality out of your mind, there is a lot to enjoy in this old image....especially more Soba than you can shake a stick at....er, chop sticks, that is ! Although I am not a big fan of the Japanese Soba shown in this photograph, my wife and kids sure are, and they would be drooling if they saw this pic ! As for me, it's OKINAWA SOBA or BUST ! www.flickr.com/photos/minami/443678467/ PS. Related old Soba-eating Image HERE : www.flickr.com/photos/24443965@N08/2629446978/
