It's Time to Think… About Ink

This thread may not appeal to everyone but I would love to see your outdoor-themed ink.

It's about time to start planning my next tattoo and I'm always looking for inspiration. All my current pieces are martial-arts related but I want to add a hiking/backpacking piece.

So, whatcha got?

I love this one...but it would have to be in a green tint 🙂

@Gary2oh man! that is sweet! I've been looking for ideas so this is great. That looks like a B&W photo.

this is a joke - I think a 'tree tunnel' would be more apropos for the AT, lol

@Dad_Aint_Hip got this one in 2017 after my first solo ascent of a peak in Bolivia. The mountains are based off a photo I took of the peak and the surrounding mountains, and we added some condors to represent the Andes. The numbers are the height of the mountain in meters, and yes, the fading/"missing parts" on the tattoo are on purpose. 🙂
