LMSPride2021

Welcome to June’s photo challenge! This month is all things Pride as it’s (not really globally, but a lot of people go all out this month) Pride Month.

Please remember this is a HP/JKR free zone. A hate free zone. And there is no supporting of toxic authors from me whatsoever (toxic can encompass a lot of things).

As always, interpret these prompts however you would like to! And don’t forget to use #LMSPride2021 so I can see your photos, too!
