It's my birthday, /p/! Here's to Year One of a lifetime of photography.

I got myself a little something to commemorate the occasion. Pic related.

Pic related, it's my design. Mocked up in Photoshop, redone in Illustrator.

A fellow Daily Texan photog was present to document the event...

(I'm not really howling in agony, I just had a particularly awesome grimace going right then. I actually laughed through most of the procedure.)

You know, you hear beforehand that it's a needle entering your skin thousands of times, but you can't really understand just what that means, in terms of pain, until you're sitting there. It's pretty awesome. Nice adrenaline/dopamine rush.

Now would be a good day to restart your photo year project.

Also: I was considering getting a tattoo very much like that one.

Grats on year one.

Perhaps... I'll think on it. I've found that though my quantity of shooting has gone down, the quality has risen. Hmm... it's worth thinking about, though. The only problem is that everything happening in my life right now... I can't talk about. :D

Not with my parents and ex-girlfriends reading the blog. Heh.

Diablo Rojo. They're a little more pricy than other places, but fuckit, I just wanted to walk in and have it done nearby.

Bunch of tattooed hippies down there in Austin. ;P (At least, that's what my dad would say.)

Happy birthday.

Lrn2converse in the register of the online community with whom you are conversing. I.e., "lrn2x" is perfectly acceptable in 4chan's idiom, as is the misspelling in the next sentence in this post.

I made this for you.

I made this for you as a birthday present.

I made the standard improvement because it takes like 30 seconds.

Heavyweather and that guy look like they could be cousins or something. Seriously.
>> ac !!VPzQAxYPAMA
>>146673
Yeah, I noticed that too. When I was shoopin' him in there, I was worried about it not looking any different at all, and people wouldn't realize what I had done.

But then I realized that my attempts to blend in the edges and match colors would be hamfisted at best, so it ended up being pretty obvious.
>> heavyweather !4AIf7oXcbA
Haha, that's an awesome present. Thanks dude.

By the way, it's f/8, or pretty close to it. :D

When I was getting my tattoo, there were times when I had to try and stop myself from giggling like a little girl.

Honestly, I'm not much of a fan of your design, but what's remarkable is your dedication to photography. Happy birthday man. :)

oh and yeah, it's true. Tattoos are pretty awesome. I'll probably get another one of these days, when I have a good reason.
