Tattoos, I believe are a reflective process. Before choosing something that will be on your body for your entire life, I would think one would need to look inside for a bit in order to find that piece that finally calls out to him/her. More often than not, the tattoo becomes one with the person - [which is exactly what you want, by the way :)]. But I think sometimes we forget to look at the tattoo as an art form itself. So I chose to do this shot of the tattoo itself in a more reflective process, with a hint of the person that dorns it.

On a different note, my blog database seemed to have rolled back along with the backup, and I've lost two posts, and all the comments in the last two weeks. This is highly random, and very weird, and I've never seen this before; but I apologise to anybody who left comments in the last two weeks; I sincerely appreciate that you took the time to visit and leave a comment, and hope you will visit back again.

Projects

The Tattoo Project
In this project, I have tried to take portraits of people with their tattoos, proudly showing the part the tattoos play in their lives.

Bangladesh
My country gets a lot of bad rep, and the only news you hear about it are about floods, cyclones, tragedies, political turmoil, etc. Its not what I remember growing up. I wanted to show a country that has so much more to offer than the sum of its statistics.
