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.

NYC, here I come!

There are a lot of reasons I’m headed to New York, some business, some pleasure. I’ll be there from tomorrow night until Friday… got myself a nice little hotel next to Central Park so if I get bored I can go for a walk and get mugged or get a bj from a hobo or something. Anyway, part of the reason I’m going has to do with the photos below of Charlotte Bell and Bella Vendetta (pictures by Bob Coulter).

You decide whether this falls into the pleasure or business category.

Anyway, I’ll try and keep the blog updated while I’m gone, but no promises.
