I like the contrast of the photos that I took, showing the happy joyful side of pride, yet at the same time there were shots that questioned modern pride. reviewing the photos made me consider the idea of showing them to see these, as I personally can see both sides so I wouldn't want to take just one that I don't feel super strongly about; making the project more of a concept and prompting thought and question, rather than stating one thing.
