This tattoo has a very touching story: done for a mom, whose kid was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 and then the remission started, now they stopped fighting.

My first photo using the 17-40L I bought myself for Christmas... I've just been looking back through some random snaps from a walk and came across this... the composition may be lacking a wee bit (Ha!) but I hope you all like the scene regardless...

Buckle up tight as the ‘Merthyr Mayhem’ was set to unfold on a warm night in the South of Wales
Muay Thai (Thai boxing) is Thailand’s national sport. Thai boxing isn’t just about fighting, it’s also about ritual, ceremony and respect.
It’s widely believed that the modern form of Muay Thai traces its roots back to a form of unarmed combat performed by Siamese soldiers. Much of the tradition from ancient times still remains intact, particularly in the pre-fight ceremonies and the adornments each fighter wears when entering the ring.
The modern day Muay Thai fighter enters the ring wearing garlands of flowers around his neck, cotton armbands known as prajiad around the biceps and a sacred cotton headband, known as mongkhon.
In Thai boxing, any part of the body, except for the head, can be used to attack an opponent. The target area is any part of the body, except for the groin. Fighters wear boxing gloves, but it is often kicks or elbows to the head which result in knock-outs. Bouts normally consist of 5 rounds. Each round lasts 3 minutes with a 2 minute rest between each round.
Thai boxing stadiums including Lumpini and Rajadamnern in Bangkok.
The Rose Garden Riverside is in Nakhon Pathom Province. Located along the Tachin River, the 70 acre resort is only an hour's drive from Bangkok.
Tourists mainly go to the Rose Garden to watch the internationally acclaimed Thai Village Cultural Show. However, there are plenty of other activities at the Rose Garden to keep you busy. The Living the Thai Culture programme is situated around the Thai Village where there are different bases to learn more about every day traditional life in Thailand. These include: Dancing and Musical Instrument, Garland Making & Fruit Carving, Traditional Pottery, Thai Martial Arts, Silk Processing, Traditional Weaving, Umbrella Painting, Thai Country Kitchen, Orchid Nursery, Thai Herbal Pavilion, Bamboo Dancing and Rice Farming.

Wilfredo Vazquez Jr., right, defending his title at the Kissimmee Civic Center. For some reason, I always get better shots of his opponents landing shots. Unfortunately for Mr. Cecillio Santos here, Wilfredo pummeled him so badly that his face looked like rare filet by the start of the 2nd round... Vazquez recorded another KO before the end of the 2nd round.
