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 Cable is plastic coated and it was autoclaved the cable ends fit into the needles when piercing so the piercing points never come into direct contact with the cable ends. oh hey shannon, its Circle23 Photography i thought productions might confuse people so i wanted to make sure you knew
