~It’s summer (still) in the city, and Pride, too~

As it turns out, it’s been a pretty busy summer, August in particular has been a hectic (yet good) month for a summer month. Hence, I’ll be brief.

August is also Pride Month in New Jersey. Here are a few recent images captured while walking the Garden State streets:
