.......me too, Dottie! She had couple more tats on her back, but I didn't want to push the limit. Remember she was having an issue with the ladies next to us? Poor thing.

........we did, Calvina. Next time you join us, leave the hubby home with the kids ;)

.....no kidding.

Nice pic! Are you happy with your Sigma 30 1.4? It sounds like a good replacement to my (cheap) canon 50 1.8 :)

@McFull - the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 is a very nice lens for the price - it's the lens that sits on my D200 most of the time.

Another nice shot Cindy :)

gracielouwho says:

I found your photo by googling an article from the san francisco chronicle
'"A case in point is Beth Loster, 24, a San Francisco writer and waitress who was a student at UC Berkeley when she met a young man who said, "Hey, we have tattoos in the same font."

The text of her tattoo - "clad in the panoply of love" - came from "Science & Health" by Mary Baker Eddy. "I like the way the written word looks on the body," she said. "And that phrase made me feel safe." His tattoo, also in a "typewriter" typeface, was in Latin. (She can't recall the translation.)

The text of Loster's next tattoo was written by that young man, who had become her boyfriend. Before leaving for South America, where he was going to study, he left a note on her refrigerator that began, "this is on account of my loving you forever." That phrase - in the form of a tattoo - offered her comfort when he was killed in a car accident in Brazil."
