On my foray out into the 30th Folsom Street Fair today, I encoutered quite a few human animals form ponies to puppies to kiities. The creature cavalcade (the procession of human animals through the early hours of the Folsom Street Fair) was especially lolvely. Here is some video of the early run of the human animal cavalcade at Folsom 2013 (more photos can be found below):
The 30th Folsom Street Fair was two days ago (although the 30th anniversary will be next year). Many things have changed for me between last year's fair and this year's. However, one thing that has not changed is my fascination for everything to do with pony play.
After attending this year's fair, and watching the animal cavalcade for the second time, I am reminded that there truly is something amazing about watching animal roleplay live, in person.
Sure, being the pony is awesome (and I wouldn't have it any other way in most circumstances), but as a pony, we so rarely get to see what enraptures our audience. As ponies we know why we enjoy it, but from our side of the reins it can be difficult to understand why, for example, at the largest fetish event in the world, a handful of us walking around can instantly become the largest attraction.
So...although I know I cannot do justice to the magic of live pony play with a few photos, I would like to share some of the snapshots I took at Folsom on Sunday:

If you saw my photos from last year's (2012) Folsom, you might remember I saw some leather chest harnesses held together with horse bits. Well, I saw one again this year:
It's kinda hot how he's wearing a bridle as a body harness, but it would be super hot if the bit (with the awesomely high port and rollers to prevent him gripping the bit with his teeth) were in his mouth:
