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.

Piano Chestpiece

Even though in this photo it looks like the linework may be a little shaky (or it could just be the photo), I really think this piano chestpiece is very pretty peaking out from under a collar.

    Is this a Cursive tattoo? If so, that would explain the shakey lines (the album artwork has crooked keys).
