London Pride
12 by 12: Challenge #4: "Take what you believe will be the final series of photographs before you die.
— Nick Brandt
It took me a long time to get my head around this instruction. My own mortality and human vulnerability is something that I examine a lot in my work but somehow it didn't feel right for this instruction. Something I have learned from watching someone reach the end of their life, and from the times when I've wondered myself if I'm going to make it, is that the best preparation I can make for my inevitable end is to live life in all its fullness and grab all opportunities to be joyful whenever they come along.
Pride is a day that is full of life; it's a time of celebration and love, a time to rejoice in being oneself, a day to celebrate each person's glorious uniqueness.
Life is too short not to be oneself and to help others to do the same.
