A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

You’ll See My Silhouette


Good morning, ModBloggers! Let’s kick off the week with a smooth, refreshing cigarette. It doesn’t look like Ferdudurke‘s is lit, mind you, but look how much he’s enjoying himself regardless! Cigarettes are just swell, aren’t they?

(Not really.)

(Bracing self for inevitable flame-war.)

(Still a great photo.)

    Its kind of cool how his nostrils don’t seem to be pushed down but pushed towards the point of the nose and squashing it a bit. It might just be me though :p

    Smoking is such a terrible way of mutilating one’s body.

    This photo is only a first part of one composition from two photos. Look here http://iampix.bmezine.com/c/q/tpejo1/kc124bnc.jpg (Please, this photo adding in this post too ). And don’t look at cigarettes, look at perpendiculars and the parallels, which cigarettes create;)

    For some reason, I like the first shot best.

    But really. I looked at that for a second, and I was like, “Stretched nostrils.” Then I looked again and was like, “….STRETCHED EVERYTHING.” D: And it tickled me, somewhere deep in my nose. I imagine that hard part of the septum hurt quite a bit?

    these are great photos and cigarettes do, in fact make you look cool. sorry, it’s an aesthetic thing with accessories, if ypou use them right they are amazing, that’s why they work so well in film as set pieces). Nice work!
