Gay Pride 2007

I have this annual tradition of photographing a group of friends who dress up every year for Gay Pride in New York. This year I flew out there just for the occasion and, like last year, rented a couple of expensive lenses to document the whole thing. Above is the whole group posing just before embarking to crash the parade.

Jesse as Flaming Queen

Jesse, Cool Dan and and Rachel as Queens of the Jungle. Cool Dan had a broken foot so he "marched" this year's parade in a wheel chair.

From the lefth: Shaniabear as Trashy Queen, Michael as Anita Seatbelt - aka Lady Die, Sexy Dan as the Queen of Pop, Jesse as Flaming Queen and Bam Bam as Queen Bee

Javier as Queen of the Damned gets his hair done by Harrison

Anita Seatbelt - the Would-be Queen

Shaniabear as Trashy Queen

Cool Dan and Rachel as Queens of the Jungle. They're like some crazy mix of Tarzan, Kiss and Captain & Tenille. View More Photos on Flickr I put up nearly 100 photos from the parade. Derek, the groups Videographer, has put up a YouTube Page of Queen Clips. Also, please check out Jesse's amazing Blog, Jesse on the Brink. This is the fourth year I've documented the group's antics. See also: 2003, 2004 and 2006 2005 I was in Sao Paulo.
