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.

    Definitely admire that a whole lot. I’ve had my feet done and wowee they hurt. This must have been a rough sitting but a very pretty end result!

    I enjoy a good octopus tattoo every once & awhile. Personally, I’m not one for the sea. Creatures scare me.

    i’m with some of the others here in that the eyes are a little too zany for me. but all in all great work. i was thinking of getting some work done on my feet, but i’ve been told that it is possible for the ink to rub out or fade much quicker than anywhere else. any ideas?
