Nice and interesting. The pattern on her dress matches the pathway. A little spash of red on her back adds a significant locale to keep the eye focused and anchored in the photo.

Nice, I like the focus on the colorful pattern on her back. And the star pattern seems to repeat in some of the specular highlights. --Melanie

Alexis, what I like about this composition is that the 'title subject' is recognisable even though it still (in my opinion) conforms to the challenge theme.

It is dramatic via rotational aspect and via the heavy motion blur effect, but allows one to relate a story including the geisha as an important element.

Wow... sorry for the long-winded comments, but I think you captured the theme very well. ~ Regards Melbob

You've got very strong linear elements working to the vanishing point here. It creates and emphasizes a sense of motion. What appears to me a a non horizontal horizon add to the motion. This photo tells a story. Nice capture.
