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.

Nipple Sun Tattoo

Laura writes,

“This is my first tattoo, I got it today. It was done by Newt at Physical Graffiti in Rochester, NY. I’m not going to say it didn’t hurt, but I don’t know how a tattoo on a “normal” part of my body would feel. I like it but I’m planning on getting it added to, either with color or with lettering on the inside. My favorite part is the stars, I hope to get them colored in someday. Hope you like it!”

I do like it, and (not that nipples aren’t great to start with, but…) think more people should make their nipples a little more interesting.

    But but but….. all the stars at the bottoms are really small and close to the “solar flares” but at the top they’re far apart…. I’m a sucker for symmetry! Please don’t spoil it with letters – colour it all in pastie stylee!

    Grrr, it is so so sexy though!

    It would be cool if she got a matching one on the otherside with moons instead of stars, or something.
    Basically,
    Something to match the motif she was going for.
