all hail the queen

Anyone have any great photos of Queen Anne's Lace they'd be willing to share with me? It just dawned on me that I have a $100 gift certificate to Lark Tattoo and that means I can FINALLY get my calves tattooed. I'm on the hunt for some good shots...found a few via Flickr, but would love to get some other inspirational pictures to work from. I haven't decided if I want this to look super realistic, or painterly, or if I want to just leave it up to Kara to decide. I trust her judgment, especially after seeing how she pulled off the sparrows on my chest. Either way, I'm itching to give her a call to set up an appointment. Eeeeeeeee! I've been waiting for this for a loooooong time. Thanks!

This won't be of any use, but I just remembered that I took this photo for you when we went to the arboretum:

Good luck in your search for the perfect image!
Can't wait to see what you get done. :)
