    Tattoo You.

    That is some really amazing ink he's wearing. I've always felt that shooting tattoos would be interesting, but I've found most people to be really shy, and unwilling to sign a release. This is great because it shows the owner of the art and gets to go Nation Wide.

    I wonder what the artist looked like?
