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.

Did All I Did Just to Get Through to Heaven


With all the excitement of the shop.BMEzine.com relaunch, I’ve been trying to calm myself down all morning. And I have to say, the above picture? Not helping. Not helping at all.

    Haha, damnit, after seeing a Filigree style tattoo on here many moons ago, I planned to design some Filigree for a tattoo of my own. This is very similar to something I had in mind! But I don’t mind =p It’s beautiful, and she pulls it off really well. (It’s actually a lot better than what I designed.)
    Back to the drawing board!

    This is a beautiful tattoo. =]

    Some people just have to try and put everything in a negative context, don’t they?

    This is one of the few times in recent memory that BME posted a nude picture where nudity wasn’t gratuitous but necessary. It’s always beautiful when you see a physique and tattoo that compliment each other this well.

    Post Script: Please do not misunderstand, I am still all for gratuitous nudity on BME
