It does look slightly wonky BUT I can't tell if its just the picture
Look at his spine in the middle at the bottom, its nowhere near symetrical around it.

Fuck me who was your tattooist, ray charles?
Out of curiosity, did you draw both sides or did you do one side and basically just mirror it so both are identical?
Also any tattooist should check it all matches up etc etc.

When you go back in just tell him "right hand side down a bit"

In my opinion i'd go somewhere else. Its not straight, its not level, a lot of the lines are poor and the design isn't symmetrical at all.
The red lines are roughly the line of your spine and from the bottom of your shoulder blades straight across, the design should be in line with both of those axis. The circles are mistakes or when its not symmetrical. I'd honestly go somewhere else and see if they can rescue it mate before too much damage is done. Shading or added lines may be able to pull it straight again.

no one will ever notice tbh, if it was all 100% perfect i think you would lose the character of a freehand tattoo and it might look like a transfer, "too" perfect.

I still maintain that I think the photo is throwing your eye out; it makes you look like your back is triangular for starters

I've heard steroids can really affect tattoos.

I would print these diagrams out and confront the artist about it, telling him you have consulted the internet and have the proof

Lol.. this thread.
UPDATE: just to a trip into Plymouth, went around 10ish different tattoo studios to get advice/ opinion.
The majority wouldnt touch someone elses work.
But a Couple said its easily savable with "powerlining" and shading.
Also, the pics darker as the ink has dyed my back for a while, will soon be pastey white skin like the rest of me.

Not the best one I've seen and as others have said the lines aren't right.
The problem with going elsewhere for an opinion is that most tattoo artists slag off other people's work and are never going to tell you it's a good job. Also the minute you walk out they'll be telling all and sundry that the person that did your ink is a bodge artist and to stay away, so 'professional' opinion is pretty much always biased.
