AC 2002 - Fursuit Parade
Due to the limited number of photos that could be taken before having to change the film, as well as a couple of them coming out blurry, I unfortunately did not get photos of every fursuiter in the parade.
Taken with an old film camera, I had scanned the negatives way back in 2002; before FA was a thing, so these have never been posted up until now, as we come up on 15 years later.
At the time, my PC monitor was 800x600, so these pictures of around 900 pixels wide/tall, seemed rather large. I no longer have a negative scanner, so I'm unable to redo them at a larger size.
I always love seeing what these older fursuits looked like, and compare them to what we more typically see today.

Yeah, it's almost scary to think about how many years have gone by. :)
There is definitely a much higher percentage of fursuiters at the cons today. Even smaller cons, with only 500 or so attending, have 100 or more fursuiters. Which is always fine for me, and other photographers. ^_^

There are indeed still some amazing, wonderful, self-made and unique fursuits that we see today; but there's also a lot of more generic fursuits showing up.
Which is okay, as there are plenty of people who want to fursuit simply because it's fun to do so, and are not so fixated on it being a personalized representation of their specific fursona. I liken it to wanting to play ball, without joining a league of some sort. You do what you can, to just have fun. :)
