Although I've lived near Cologne for over 10 years, this year was my first time making it to Christopher Street Day. I'll admit, I was a bit disappointed with the photos, but I was completely overwhelmed by the atmosphere. No matter where you were, there was just a good flow. No one was aggressive, no one was lying drunk in a corner, and everyone was friendly and accommodating. That really impressed me for such a large event.
A huge compliment to the community. The balancing act between political event and party was also very appropriate. This is another way to try to shape society... without pointing the finger at everything.
…I just press the shutter...
