BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

Can you keep a secret?  KaterPie almost spilled the beans, but her other half Tri-Stan stopped her in time.  However he couldn’t keep her away from the keyboard, and now the secret’s out.  These two lovebirds are going to be parents!

In a few short months we’ll hopefully be seeing photos of the new addition to the family in the couples who met through BME gallery.
