Branding class and The Florida Bash

I went to the bdsm event/conference yesterday called The Florida Bash held in St. Petersburg, Florida. (It's my 7th year going. It used to be in Orlando and called the Orlando Bash but for the past 3 years it has been in Clearwater/St. Petersburg.)

I took 3 classes yesterday:
- Interrogation play (and there was also a waterboarding demo which was intense)
- The Big "IT" (How to have a great relationship. Hint: Be honest no matter what.)
- Branding (I saw a cold press brand and also many hot brands done with a cautery pen. I'm now confident I can do a brand with a cautery pen. By the way, many people had brands done with it and nobody looked like they were in pain. A male sub said it just felt like a mild inconvenience.)

Here's a photo of a female getting a hot brand (of a triple goddess mark) using a cautery pen on her upper back. (Ignore the dark/black mark since that's only a stencil guideline for the design. The end result was a red brand on her.)
