Lunenburg, MA. July, 2012


This is my friend Chris, relaxing on his boat in the middle of the lake on which he grew up. We’d all climbed aboard for a ride during a party he was hosting at his childhood home. I like the late-afternoon light in this photo, the pleasure in my friend’s face...now if he’d only ditch the cigarettes. (Now a San Diego resident, Chris returns each summer to host us again at his brother's lakeside home. A tireless advocate for equal rights for all, Chris played no small part in the fight that led to the defeat of the Defense of Marriage Act by the Supreme Court. The Court’s decision that DOMA is unconstitutional became final seven years ago this month. Thanks, Chris.)
