For our second annual Pride in Pictures, LGBTQ Nation asked readers to submit a meaningful photo of themselves at Pride.

We have absolutely loved seeing your joy, your glitter, your fabulous outfits, and of course, your pride. Now, we’re spending the summer sharing some of our favorite photos and stories with all of you.

What makes this photo special to you?

This photo is my very 1st Bisexual Visibility Day last September 23rd. It is very special to me because it is the first time I felt proud and visible and [like] my true self.
