World AIDS Day


In honor of World AIDS Day I decided to take some time to photograph an annual Whitman-Walter Clinic candlelight vigil held in Dupont Circle on this December night. Washington has the worst HIV rate in the country, and so I find it important to photograph these things because in doing so it accomplishes what photojournalism does best: raise awareness.
