Rainy conditions on the Saturday before Pride did nothing to dampen spirits along Fifth Avenue during the annual NYC Dyke March, which was held on June 27.

This year represented the 34th annual NYC Dyke March, which welcomes anyone who identifies as a dyke. Marchers stepped off from Bryant Park, proceeded along Fifth Avenue, and ended up at Washington Square Park.
