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.

A tattoo you can make fun of

Erin in Detroit (not Cere) says,

I did this tattoo on a friend for his school project. It was a story on why not to let a person that does not know how to tattoo do any work on you. I’m not an artist — obviously — but it’s a good long lasting laugh.
