Bangor Pride Festival 2014: Andre's Photographic Portrait For My Month In Review

               This years Bangor Pride Festival had fewer vendors and was less well attended than the previous years that I've attended the event. A lot of people seemed to come and go quickly as well even for that. Though I did meet a few new people. And the art walk from the evening before was an absolute triumph personally. Would like to thank Troy,Justin,John,Lewis,Ray,Mark,Doug David,singer Amy Briggs from the local funk/80's band Juicebox for attending since their images appear among those you are about to see.

Still Life's Of Pride-June 24'th 2014

                              With transgender rights are now the next hurtle to jump over in terms of sexual oriented prejudices? There was this photographic concept that continued to be uppermost in my mind. On some of the rainier days earlier this month? I became very aware of the It Gets Better project,and its accompanying online videos telling the story of many transgender'd young people. As I looked around the home? The pride rainbow colors seemed to be everywhere. So using my new Nikon Coolpix camera's color isolation capabilities? I managed to take these images and see how a rainbow would look if only one color was visible and everything else was black and white. Please let me know how this symbolism reacts to you. Thank you!.
