Default Looking for possible new tattoo pic

Hey everyone,

so I have been contemplating for about a year or more to get a new tattoo on my side of an orchid. If not on my side, then a single flower on my foot. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I am leaning towards a phal, perhaps even Baldan's Kaleidoscope because I love the colors. Pics and suggestions are needed!!! Thanks,

Abby

If I were going to get a tattoo of a orchid it would be a Ghost orchid. Not very colorful though. Miltoniopsis are cool check out this link.

I was told that white tattoo's don't look the best on skin....such a shame since white orchids are beautiful! I have been thinking that an orchid tattoo sometime down the road would be fun to get as well and had been trying to figure out what would look good as well. I am going to love this thread! Sorry I am not of much help! Oh....and I already have one tattoo....on my ankle....roses....my other favorite flower!

Looks great! But that had to hurt on the foot and the knuckles of your toes! I like how the nail polish matches the colors in the orchid...hehe. Congrats!

Hmmm.....after seeing yours, I wonder if someone could turn my anklet of roses into orchids...lol.
