What makes this photo special to you?

“This was me at my first pride in Long Beach, California, in 1988. I’m the blonde in the middle with green top, the man to my right is named Henny, and the dark haired girl was my partner/girlfriend at that time – Dawn. Here we’re sitting out by the RMS Queen Mary, permanently anchored there. We were watching a concert and having a blast.”
