Outside the Bristol City Council offices at Collage Green, Bristol, England, United Kingdom, on Saturday 26th April 2025.
About this photographs.
The Scottish Supreme Courts ruled that the definition of sex is biological sex at birth, and as a result, many transgenders all over the United Kingdom started a protest. I heard there was going to be one in Bristol, so I decided to go there.
I arrived at College Green, which is where the Bristol City Council is located, and took photojournalism photos of the gathering crowd growing larger, until about 11am, when they started their march into the central of the city.
Here, some of those guys stood in the middle of the road, acting like a roadblock, so the march could cross the road. Notice that there are no police officers doing the roadblock, that is because a protest is usually set up in a short time, whereabout a Pride parade takes months of planning, so chances are the police did not have time to close some roads.
On the left side: This lady in the black top, is a driver of the front car being held up by the roadblock, she got out, and calmly asked if she could get through. I figured maybe she had a serious appointment to go to, or something like that.
On the right side: In the next shot, two of them were talking to the one seen on the right, letting them know about the lady who wished to be let through. The person in the high vis vest later talked to the other organisers, and they made the decision to hold up the march for a short time, to let the lady through.
It was shot in colour, I converted it into black and white while in Adobe Lightroom, then imported into Adobe Photoshop to create the side-by-side image.
