Occasionally, but not too often, I do venture out of the city to places far, and not so far, away.
Fourth of July weekend, I was up visiting friends in Woodstock, New York.
On July 3, we found ourselves at an outdoor flea market and I met a couple of inked folk, including Larry who has "a lot" of tattoos.
When asked to choose one, he offered up this piece on his forearm:
The image, of a candle burning at both ends, reminds him that life goes by quickly. The "No Tomorrow" is a spin on the carpe diem, or "seize the day" philosophy.
The tattoo was done by JR Maloney at Vanguard Tattoo in Nyack, New York.
Thanks to Larry for sharing his tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
