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.

    with the clouds it almost makes a sad face. like, with the two darker, roundish round clouds as eyes and the clouds behind h hook as a nose, possibly even with a bit of a tash 😛 and the suspendee as the mouth! hehe 😀

    really nice photo, must confess it does look peaceful to me. can’t work out why it just doesn’t. awseome pic though none the less.
