Photographer’s Note

There is a long tradition of tattooing in some Asian cultures. For example, monks at some Thai or Lao Buddhist temples will do traditional tattoos which are intended to work like amulets, warding off injury or bringing strength to the wearer.

Hi Patrick,
A good view of the tatooes, with nice POV and tight framing, colors are good but i thought contrast can be improved, so i posted a WS... hope you dont mind! :D

A nice shot, Patrick. I like the view on his tatoo and the beautiful orange robe around his shoulder. I agree with Laurent about some more contrast. Btw. the frame is superb. Nino
