The LGBT flag of Colorado is derived from the state flag by repainting the
blue stripes into the rainbow colors: top blue stripe is replaced with red,
orange and yellow stripes and the bottom one, with green blue and violet
stripes. There are currently only two photos of this flag: the first one was
taken at the Colorado Springs PrideFest on 2015-07-12:

and the other one, in Denver, on 2016-06-13, at the candle vigil held for
the victims of the Orlando Nightclub Shooting:

Such a small number of available sources suggests that the flag is a
rather recent creation. The shades vary a lot between the two photos, but look
more realistic on the later photo (note the sky on the earlier photo - unusually
dark for a summer sunny day), so it has served as the model for the image
presented herein.
