The beauty of Photography is not in what you see, its art lies in your dreams.
— Biju Karakkonam

As an ally of the LGBTQ+ community, I find joy in attending gay festivals and parades where people are free to be themselves without fear of judgment or discrimination. These events celebrate diversity, inclusivity, and equality, and it's truly inspiring to see so many people come together in solidarity. Capturing the energy and spirit of these festivals in photographs is a way for me to document and share this experience with others, and to showcase the beauty of LGBTQ+ culture. It's important to approach photography with respect and sensitivity, and to seek consent before taking pictures of individuals or groups. I love photographing the colorful costumes, vibrant makeup, and joyous expressions of the participants, and I hope that my images can help spread awareness and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
