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.

    #21, any guess on how the girl manages to pull off that expression in a perfectly convincing way?

    Now, really beautiful anyway.
    Try to impose yourself as a role model for all 0-14yo little girls in town, just to make sure they won’t grow up totally lame.

    I dunno. The thing made me mad.

    but again, i want to re-iterate that don’t think that you nor Joy are lame! I adore your black armwork and I think you are really gorgeous and Joy is a talented lady as well!
