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.

    my addictions tend to cost me at least 20 a day. sometimes 50,60,120, whatever i have.

    and $50 a month really doesn’t get you far in the way of tattooing…

    Love it. So, so simple. I’m thinking of a somewhat similar piece of linework, but I’m afraid a symmetrical piece of art in an asymmetrical position would freak me out. Nicely done.

    Is it just me or does she have a fully formed third nipple under her arm? And also, the requisite nice tattoo, very pretty girl, wonderful light/composition; etc.

    I got so used to seeing pierced nipples on BME that I actually was a little disappointed seeing her not having any.

    The above statement should in any case NOT mean that the picture, but especially the girl, aren’t simply gorgeus.
