Strange request...Tatoo Question

Post by Asturian72 »

Saludos desde Miami! Espero que todos esten bien. Muy contento de encontrar esta site. Primero les pido que perdonen mi Espanol escrito. Vine ha Miami de 5 anos y tengo poca practica.

Tengo pensado ponerme un tatuaje. Estoy muy orgulloso de mis ramas Asturiana.

I would love for someone to recommend an image that would represent Asturias...

so far I have thought of getting a phrase written in bable. But I really would prefer a picture..any thoughts???

Thank you all in advance and keep up the good work on this site

Long Live Asturias, more or less. It's used by those who want Asturian independence from Spain.

The main image that I think of when I think of Asturias is the "Cross of Victory" which appears on the Asturian flag.

Cuando pienso de una imagen relacionado con Asturias, pienso de la "Cruz de Victoria" que aparece en la bandera asturiana.

Brenga Astur dragon

Post by JLP »

The band Brenga Astur often features, on its CDs, drawings of a dragon playing the Gaita. Click on the page below, and they have a somewhat fuzzy, out-of-focus, version of it at the lower left.

Its a bit blurry in this picture, but it looks quite cool as it appears on a Brenga Astur CD. I would recommend a picture of this dragon playing Asturian gaita, with the Asturian "cruz de la victoria" flag also somewhere in the drawing... perhaps flying at the back of the dragon.
