PHOTOS: Drag Queens + Covered Bridges Is An Inexplicably Perfect Mashup

Like everyone, we adore both drag queens and covered bridges. But inexplicably, no one has dared to combine our to passions — until now!

New England artist Andre Rosa has created what may be the greatest mashup of unrelated objects since the platypus: The Drag Queens & Covered Bridges of New Hampshire.

Yes, they’re available in a calendar and as postcards. Of course.

Creating the gorgeous images was apparently a bit traumatic, even in the gay-friendly northeast: he encountered a frosty reception from the owners of Clark’s Trading Post Bridge, and outright bigotry from the owners of Barlett Bridge, who denied his request on the grounds that the bridge was a “wholesome place.”

But on the bright side, a family in Conway was totally enamored with the project, with a little girl convinced that the model was Lady Gaga.

“This is my love letter to New Hampshire,” Rosa writes, and as love letters go it is flawless.
