if you want to see the tattoo better and be able to take better pictures of this UV tattoo, buy yourself a 60watt UV twist bulb available at most large hardware stores for about $15. i find it hard to believe that the person and or this shop(?) if it is in fact taken in a shop, is not using one as these twist bulbs as these line lamps are only 15 watts and suck as they have far too many surfaces to keep clean and very little power to reflect off the ink without almost tuching the tattoo......

if you like it, that's all that really matters but i am guessing you'll be explaining this tattoo for some time to come......personally i don't like these invisible tattoos- commit

It's my fault for the quality of these - the first were taken by my roommates who did not know how to use my camera (Canon 40D), the second set was myself and I did not set up the image beforehand or ensure I had the best settings - I more or less "snapped the image" and slapped it on the web, so to speak.
I think the UV lamp we have (not the one the shop used) is one of those cheap WalMart blacklight 24" bulbs on a plastic mount. Thank you for the suggestion.
