EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mark Ralston, we are drawn into the vibrant and empowering atmosphere of the 2016 Gay Pride Parade in West Hollywood, California. The focus is on Sister Leiya, a striking figure with painted tears adorning her face. Her intense gaze reflects both strength and vulnerability as she stands amidst a sea of rainbow flags fluttering in the background. Ralston's close-up composition allows us to appreciate every detail of Leiya's makeup, which beautifully incorporates the colors of the pride flag. It serves as a powerful symbol of unity and celebration for the LGBTQ+ community. As we delve deeper into this portrait, it becomes evident that behind those colorful tears lies an unspoken story – one that speaks volumes about resilience and courage. The photograph encapsulates not only the spirit of gay pride but also highlights homosexuality as an integral part of society's diverse fabric. Through his lens, Ralston captures a moment frozen in time; one that encourages dialogue around acceptance and equality. This AFP image reminds us that while progress has been made towards LGBTQ+ rights, there is still work to be done. It serves as a reminder to celebrate individuality and love without judgment or prejudice. Sister Leiya represents countless individuals who have fought tirelessly for their right to express themselves authentically. Mark Ralston's evocative photograph invites viewers to reflect upon their own beliefs regarding sexual orientation while celebrating diversity within our communities worldwide.
