A Polish Symbol but the shell if anyone looked at it would probably never be recognized or thought of as Polish. How about the Mermaid Syrenka and check this foto.....using only what is inside the center circle and also rather than having it round change the lines of the circle to look like a banner keeping and not changing the inside of the circle. Or since you are from Olystn then use the shell in background with the mermaid forward.

rdywenur: I want to see all you tatoo affisionados in your latter lives when the skin hangs over your tatoos. The good thing is we'll all soon be dead after that happens so it won't matter.
