The diversity doesn't show as well as it should because I don't have all of the photos up yet but local radio stations representing large swaths of folk - rock, latino, jazz, liberal lefties - participated. I also took some crowd shots before the sun set but I haven't gotten those up yet, either. I'm sure there's an extra difficulty to being gay and an ethnic minority but it was wonderful to see all the colors and creeds of Houston present. The Chinese dragon was one of my favorite participants.

Equally heartening was seeing the number of children brought by their parents. I loved seeing the next generation out and learning about human diversity in all its beauty.

I note the use of the icon. I heart you, m'dear. Truly.
