Notes: Cooling off at Kamo river in high summer is a centuries-old part of Kyoto culture. Resturants built platforms over the shallow streambed of Kamo river were guests could dine, take pleasure in company, and enjoy the evening breeze. Here a young waitress is resting on one of the teahouse platforms near Shijo Bridge.

Pictures: Pictures are taken outdoor, in the shade, to reflect true colors, without any enhancements of any kind. The last picture is taken indoor, with a light behind the print, to reveal the exact paper grain, holes if any, or other possible flaws.
