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.

The Happy Sun BME logo!!!

Such a cute tattoo! It’s on chickadee2084 (“a reminder to always Be More, she says), and was done by Tina Carr at Inkers in Germantown, MD (the shading is a nice addition), and originally designed by Gray.

PS. Happy Sun Shirts!

    hahahahah @ Shannon … i was not expecting that remark to pop outta you! lol i forget you have a little one, and that you actually spend time with her watching tv with her. that’s fantastic fathering.

    It reminds me of carebears so much.. the stars (like sneezy said about the pillow case). The roundness and gigantic smile is just charming and is like a magnet.. it just draws me to stare at it and just smile. lol
