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.

    I was about to say “Enough star tattoos for christ sake…”

    But of the multitude that I have seen posted,

    this has a better asthetic concept then most.

    i like this much more than the varying-sized star lines i keep seeing. not that those aren’t pretty, but they tend to be overdone a bit.
