The fursuit photo of the year
8 years ago
General
Every year, I like to give recognition to a fursuiter, or a photo or video that stands out from all the rest.
This year I have chosen a photo that is just a simple snapshot, but it says so much.
I found it while looking on the Anthrocon Flickr group this past Summer.
It shows a fursuiter giving a high 5 to a passing motorist on the streets of Pittsburgh at AC.
AC is the only con that I know of where you can do that.
That is my favorite thing about AC , the level of interaction with the locals.
They line the streets to watch our parade.
They let us hug their kids.
They take selfies with us.
They invite us to sit next to them at the bar.
10 years ago the public saw us as weirdos. Now they flock downtown to be next to us.
And no other con and no other city has that relationship like AC and Pittsburgh.
This photo really captures the vibe of both AC and Pittsburgh.
When I look at the photo, it makes me count down the days so that I can be THAT fursuiter.
The one that has a very positive and memorable interaction with the locals.
Congratulations (photographer) Randorn Canis and (fursuiter) Hyshaji Nightdragon

If I recall correctly, it was an older woman being driven by a younger woman (maybe her daughter). It was indeed quite a moment!

And this is also a reason.
