This black and white photograph captures a candid scene inside a tattoo studio in Sydney, shot by photographer Graham Shearer. A shirtless man leans forward while a heavily tattooed artist uses a tattoo machine on his upper back. To the left, a woman sits with a magazine, looking on, while another bald, tattooed man watches from the foreground.
