A landscape with trees and mountains, featuring a large square photo of a silhouetted tree placed in the center, blending with the natural scenery behind it. Inspired by Mark Klett (American, b. 1952) and Byron Wolfe (American), from *Reconstructing the View*, this inkjet print—gift of the artists—seamlessly merges photographic elements with the picturesque environment.

People march outdoors in a pride parade, carrying rainbow flags and a large GEM Lambda Kodak banner. Participants wear casual clothes, and buildings and trees are visible in the background. Even before they formally acquired official recognition at Kodak, Lambda members met as a support group and participated in off-campus events such as this mid-1990s Pride Parade in Rochester, NY.
