Not to be missed.

This is the work of Todd Noble of Independent Tattoo (http://www.vantat.com/noble2.jpg)

I'm considering going to Vancouver's 1st International Tattoo Convention.

Having had less than a passing interest in tattoos for quite some time, I was surprised to see many ladies (and men) with MASSIVE tattoos when I was living in Seattle.

I have much more than a passing interest in the wide variety of body adornment in the world's cultures, so thought I could make use of some of the educational seminars being run at the Convention, in addition to the general education i'm sure to receive whilst gawking at everything as I wander the exhibition space.

I would LOVE to take some photos there... I wonder how bashful heavily tattooed people are?
