Getting ink done

I am a great admirer of people with passions. I don’t really care what they are passionate about, just to have a consuming interest in something is enough to gain my respect. But I don’t understand the excitement over tattoos. For a start, it hurts; or at least I assume it does; and and if I wanted pain I would have married a German. Plus, once you are sick of the tattoo hobby, or the subjects thereof; you can’t just walk away from it. “I love Sarah Jane” is going to be emblazoned across your arse crack for ever.

But it clearly has an interest to some, because the annual tattoo festival was attracting crowds at Royal Garden Mall today. Took a few shots with the Fuji X100 at ISO3200.

You should get one of your Polo shots tattooed on your back! I think it would be brilliant! :P

What baffles me is that the majority of people have tattoos on their backs, where they can’t see them!

Spanky that’s brilliant! Spike’s mighty rippling muscles will bring the horse alive, you could charge admission to see that…

Spanky and Grant, I think you two should get together to indulge your fantasies at http://equuseroticus.com/

Spike, you are a first class grub!! Is this what you see when you shoot polo or is that just a blind - do you have photos on this site??

Chap #2 is getting Einstein done on his upper thigh. I would love to know the thought process that led to that decision.

Spike that site is sadly lacking in pictures. Give up on the Polo matches and go shoot their events. Just think of the stock photography sales you could generate!

Impressive shots; but not taken at the Tattoo Festival in a Pattaya shopping centre.
