The Dinah in pics!

If you couldn't make it to The Dinah this year, fear not -- we're bringing it to you. We told Gay.com photographer Doris Meier to spend 48 hours at The Dinah and capture the hot poolside action in images.

She did just that -- and also found her way into the "L Word" press conference, where a hotter-than-hot Rachel Shelley made a surprise appearance alongside Ilene Chaiken, Elizabeth Keener and Alexandra Hedison.

Take a look at The Dinah 2008 pics now!

And speaking of The Dinah, Mariah Hanson really went nuts on talent this year.  The cast of "The L Word," Pat Benatar, Tila Tequila, Jenny Shimizu, Thea Gill and Colbie Calliat are only some of the celebs scheduled to appear at The Dinah 2008.  (Yikes -- with Belinda Carlisle and the GoGo's performing at the Girl Bar Dinah Shore Weekend, well, lesbians really had a tough choice to make this year. Let's face it -- having to choose between seeing Pat Benatar OR the GoGo's in concert is one tough lesbian call...)

Also -- JD Disalvatore, the amazing producer/director and gal-on-the-town was down in Palm Springs filming video blogs of all the hot Dinah action. Check out  her amazing footage at her Web site, The Smoking Cocktail.
