Small-town tattoo parlor 2

Went to a tattoo parlor with my good friend today - he was having his tattoo finished up and colored. Having wanted to do a photo-series from a place like this for a while, I brought my camera and took a few pictures. After I got home, I decided that I wanted to try adding some of the atmosphere in there in the postwork, even though I've started to cut down on it...
What fascinated me was that he wasn't just a random tattoo-guy but he was a "real artist"... He took pride in his work and was really creative. That was really nice!
