Description
Man with flag in front of Greek Parliament during Athens Pride 2012.Couldn't find my watermark signature psd in order to add it on the photo so i just uploaded it like this just in smaller size.
NOTE: corrected the framing and reuploaded it. I think now the emphasis on the colors of the flag is bigger.

Thats the most beautiful thing to say about my work! Thank you. Everyone should be proud of who they are be it straight or gay, tall or short, black or white, fat or slim, loner or outgoing etc... If thats what one is then others must accept it. Hiding only makes things worst (and i know some things about hiding myself...)

Thank you. Im glad you like it. I only wish there was more flag in the composition, but from the lot of pictures i shot from this man i decided to use this where his back is turned so that the focus is not on him.

Yeah, Greece of all places should be proud of homosexuality. After all, this was really the first place where the love was equal, and it didn't really matter.

Indeed in ancient Greece both in Sparta and Athens homosexual love was common. In Sparta between soldiers so that their bonds would be stronger and fight harder in order to protect each other, while in Athens it was a teacher-student thing. However modern Greeks tend to dismiss this fact.

Well that's really lame. I hate it when people are in denial of their own culture. Hypocrites. However, I'm glad to see that more people acknowledge it and embrace it as a part of their culture.

The Greeks should be proud of their gay/lesbian heritage.
Only two words: Sappho, Lesbos.

Yeah they should but just right back then Greek people still have difficulty in accepting it. Every year more people come out of the closet and I hope that there will come a day when being straight, gay/lesbian, bi, trans etc will mean nothing at all.
