Castro Street Fair, SF

Friday, 15th April 2005 by James

Castro Street is a street in San Francisco, California. Between Market Street and about 20th Street, it is at the heart of that city’s gay village. When this shot was taken the Castro Street fair was on - you can make out the white tents in the middle of the streets and the sea of colour around them are the hundreds of people.
