San Francisco Pride Photos
In honor of San Francisco Pride for the LGBTQRSTUVWXXXLSMFT communities, I am featuring my photo sets from the past few Pride parades, post-parade celebrations, Pink Saturday, and Faerie Village.
My first gay Pride parade was in 1982 and I do recall taking a few pictures that year. I bought a nice Pentax SLR camera in 1983, and it was the first time I went crazy shooing pictures. (Shooting three or four rolls in one day seemed excessive at the time, but with digital, I sometime shoot 500 pictures in a day!) After going through and reprocessing my "old" parade photos, I guess I better go through my really old photos from the 80's and 90's and scan them to be added them to the site, too.
I started shooting pictures with digital cameras in 2003, and I had discs of photos from 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 that are now featured in the Paparazzi Pix section of the Lavender Lounge VIP Room. I reprocessed them from the raw, high res. versions and saved them as larger versions that I previously used on Lavender Lounge. All my photo galleries on Lavender Lounge are now viewable by slide show, too. The slide show feature is the part of my site that I am most proud!
Members can access them directly by clicking on the sample photos shown here, but if you haven't become a member of the VIP Room, NOW would be the time to join! By next Tuesday, I will have a ton of new photos from 2007 Pink Saturday, Pride Parade, and my own little Pride-related event, the Mr. Muscle Bear Cub Contest.
Hope you enjoy my photos, and enjoy your Pride weekend!
