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 didn’t think that was water, or saliva at first. =/
    Nicely done tattoos though- especially for an area with skin as loose as the eyelids.

    The eyelids are not a very nerve rich area and as tattoos go not that painful – most of the sensation comes from feeling the vibration on the eye itself through the eylids – which can really freak some people out. Also, in order to keep excess ink out of the eye it is common to flush it periodically throughout the procedure with saline which is very annoying and potentially irritating. The area is hard to work, kudos to the artist for what looks like very crisp lines
