  1. Definitely a unique character. Hujar's photos, at least the ones here, are nice and uncluttered. In each one, the male is the focus of the shot.

    1. Yes, even with all that ink going on, there's still a simplicity.

  2. Je n'étais pas très adepte de tatouages, mais je m'en suis fait faire un sur le bras en souvenir de ma maman. Je comprends mieux à présent la symboliques qu'ils peuvent représenter!!! Ici les tatouages sont extraordiaires!!!

    I was not a big fan of tattoos, but I had one done on my arm in memory of my mom. I understand better now the symbolism they can represent!!! Here the tattoos are extraordinary!!!

    1. Yes, and they way the quarters of his body alternate between tattooed and clear adds another dimension.
