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.

“Been busy creating”

Girl‘s right forearm, tattooed by Gavin Rowbottom at Feline in Sheffield, and her eight week old son. Interesting juxtaposition with the previous entry!

    last time i was in feline tattoo (in fairness, about two years ago), there were kittens and a dog in the studio while people were being worked on.

    some talented artists, but is it worth the risk?
