The Wider Image: Breaking taboos: Japan's tattoo fans bare their ink
Author Hiroki Takamura, 62, wears a traditional Japanese loincloth called a "fundoshi" as he attends the annual gathering of the Irezumi Aikokai (Tattoo Lovers Association) in Tokyo, Japan, February 16, 2020. "At my past job, tattoos were not allowed so I applied foundation every morning to cover it. It took over 30 minutes every morning to cover all of my tattoos", said Takamura, who used to work as a former school administrator. REUTERS/Kim Kyung-Hoon SEARCH "KYUNG-HOON TATTOOS" FOR THIS STORY.
