Artist's Comments



*edit- cleaned up the text...it didn't need it (dunno why I put it in) and added a watermark, I so wanna enter this for an annual N.I.F.C.A competition here

this is one photo I feel so strongly about, I had taken this a good time back with my sister's help, when an idea suddenly popped into my head and I was driven to go try it, and today I thought it could be put to great use for the HIV/AIDS awareness month to come (the quality of the photo isn't that great to me, forgive me but I had to put up what I thought might be a great message for people and help others learn about the awareness of HIV/AIDS) and I will try to retake a proper photo

*edit-enhanced it a bit, the red is little more stronger and silkier

Here is a little information on HIV/AIDS extracted from wikipedia

What is HIV/AIDS?
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS or Aids) is a collection of symptoms and infections resulting from the specific damage to the immune system caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in humans,[1] and similar viruses in other species (SIV, FIV, etc.). The late stage of the condition leaves individuals susceptible to opportunistic infections and tumors. Although treatments for AIDS and HIV exist to slow the virus' progression, there is no known cure.


you can't get HIV/AIDS from body/physical contact with other people such as hugging, kissing, coughing or sneezing...

One thing that I'll always remember thats constantly being said, AIDS does not discriminate, it can happen to any one of us

so those who suffer from the sickness should not be isolated, we all are human with feelings and emotions...we should be treated equally

STOP the stereotypical comments and myths...
...know the FACTS!

Here is a [link] to ~mrssmithtakestheday's journal, she and her best friend are trying to create a book about HIV/AIDS, which includes art, poetry, painting etc. Please take a look and help support them.

Please help inform others about the risk and preventions they can take to help fight AIDS!
