This photograph of Polish piercer Kamil at work is superb — a great choice for this ad poster for Mean Green Machine, the Zabrze tattoo shop that he works at (which can also be found online at www.meangreenmachine.pl. The second photo, this one promoting their tattooists, is stunning as well. I wouldn’t normally just reprint ads here, but for these beauties I think it’s worth making an exception. You can of course click them to see them full size.

I had thought that the only piercing that significantly alters a person’s facial expressions are big stretched lip piercings, because they alter the base shape of the mouth by pushing the lips into a different default form. A big labret can make a frown, or two off-centre labrets can make a funny smirk. But JJ proves that my thinking is too shallow, offering up the evidence that even a septum piercing can give you a new introductory expression. Unfortunately it’s not a good one, and it gives you a bit of a dry mouth.

Stunning fashion photo of Teya Salat of St. Petersburg, Russia and her incredible throat and collar tattoo that really brings out that “Madonna with the Long Neck” beauty. Just a sensation photo merging a very bold and over-the-top tattoo with traditional beauty that people would swoon over no matter the cultural bias or point in history.

I have such a soft spot for pictures like this (in this case you surely recognize Pineapple Tangaroa of Shaman in Austin, Texas). Anyway, I’m done for tonight since it was a very long day (and while I do love my readers dearly, I’m afraid my family must come first) and I’m really not up to speed on this format… I have a daunting pile of things I want to show you but I’m still learning how to make my fingers move fast enough to make it happen at a reasonable pace.
