Low resolution?	yes
Purpose of use	This is the main illustrating that the event actually occurred, which was a historically significant event to the world wide LGBT movement. The image is only being used for informational purposes to depict the scale of the events as described. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it exemplifies an important topic from this article. The image depicts one of the most important touchstones of the history of the Rainbow flag; there were two giant flags and we are only including one aerial image as most images would likely be quite similar. The image depicts one of only two instances of these historic event; 1994 in New York City and 2003 in Key West, Florida. Both events resulted in the flags being sectioned up and used subsequently around the world for pride parades and LGBT protest marches. copies made from it will be of very inferior quality to the original,
Replaceable?	there is believed to be no alternative, public domain or free-copyrighted replacement available; likely because such an image is taken from an airplane or helicopter each of which would in turm be copyright to those photographers or their news agencies.
