I didn't end up taking that many photos this year. But at every mardi gras, I try to get a photo of Penny and Karen (and a friend of theirs in between)

The highlight for me was a retrospective of Ron Muncaster's costumes over the years. Here's some of the boys from the Sydney Star Observer in them.

And a group shot of the Gay Lesbian Rights Lobby marchers. They were posing already, I couldn't resist.

I love how there are young and old participants in Mardi Gras.

And this little girl is especially cute.

These girls are cute in a... different way.

More flesh and glamour.

Amazing the things he created with a few things left around the house. Here's Stacey from the SSO!

Getting that costume on just right...

Two of Sydney's extraordinary photographers of the gay and lesbian scene, captured on film. Jamie and C. Moore! Why do I cut off people's heads?

And here's the genius himself.

There two nice guys, - & -, were fellow volunteers for the parade. That's what I did this year! Crowd control.
