Taken at the Pride parade. Many thanks to the drag queens who posed so enthusiastically for me. I wish I could have dodged the face of the queen on the left..the shadow is killing me, but the day was so sunny and I had about 7 seconds to get my shot before they had to move along. oh well!

It would have been a great shot, if you had gotten the entire name on the front of the bus "Queens".

Humorous take on the challenge - but if that bus says "Queens" wouldn't it have been more appropriate to leave it in? LOL Nice colors and "pose."

Always been a bit of a fave this movie. Nice capture too, though I'm sure these guys didn't take much convincing to pose now did they! ;)
Good luck, Todd. 8.

i was at this parade, and thought to use this movie as title, decided dpcers might be a bit too conservative, look forward to seeing how you do. good luck

hilarious. a little disturbing, but hilarious. New York? I think you should have used this for self-portrait.

Hehehe... this is one great movie... I loved it, watched in on the bus while we were touring around Australia. Where's the huge flowing skirts though... a little tame for that movie don't you think ;-) I like the expressions on their faces though.

This photo does a good job of providing equivalents for the human actors and Priscilla (the vehicle) in the movie. The image seems to tip just a little bit to the left. You might want to try rotating it to the right a fraction.
