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.

Roberto Lopez

I am a giant, giant fan of Roberto Lopez at Suavecito Tattoo in Argentina (search for him on BME, it’s worth checking out). His ability to make tattoos look like pastel art is some of the best in the world in my opinion, and worth travelling for.

This piece far from shows off his talents (which is why I say search), but I really liked it as a pinup with a different look than most.
