Junction of Penn Street and Broadmead, outside of entrance to Cabot Circus, Bristol, South West of England, United Kingdom, on Saturday 9th of July 2022.
About this photograph.
The Bristol Pride parade was marching northwards up Penn Street, and I was walking alongside, taking documentary and journalism kind of photos of the march.
By this point, I reached the entrance to Cabot Circus, across from Broadmead, and stayed there for a moment, looking for any shots to take.
At the junction of Broadmead and Penn Street, on the other side of the road from Cabot Circus which is seen in the background.
This guy is holding a sign that reads ”Jesus Christ, the same yesterday and today and for ever.”
I figured to try and get some shots, in case they may make good documentary photos.
In this part of the area, there were a handful of Christians or other people who believes in different religions, and they were there as the Pride parade marched through.
It’s possible that some of them have different options on the Christian views of the LGBT ways, it’s hard for me to tell which of them supports or against the LGBT.
About the event.
Bristol Pride is an annual festival held over couple of weeks, promoting equality for the various LGBT+ people, with a march through the city at a weekend.
The Bristol Pride started life in 1977 as a fundraiser for the local LGBT community, and evolved into an annual event held every year. There was a gap of only some years between 1994 to 2010 when it was restarted.
The 2022 march started at Castle Park, near Castle Street. The route took them past Cabot Circus, and went around the major shopping area by using The Horsefair and Union Street, and as they went down Union Street, they headed towards Castle Park. When they reached Castle Park, they turned into Wine Street, went into High Street, and into Baldwin Street, headed towards the A38 which is Anchor Road. This route took them into Canon’s Road, and ended up near the Bristol Aquarium.
The march was said to take about an hour, but as a photographer whom would go back and forth, up and down the line, looking for good shots, it took me at least a couple of hours to complete the route.
After the march, those whom bought tickets, can attend an evening musical festival at The Downs, approximately to the north-west of city centre. I did not attend this event, and by the time I got back to my friend’s home, I was worn out from the heat.
