The World AIDS Day 2007 was organised by Brunei's AIDS Council. It was held at ICC, Berakas. The guest of honour was the deputy minister of the Ministry of Health.
This event is to make us remember and be aware that AIDS (or HIV) should not be taken lightly as a normal disease. From the latest statistics, the number of people infected by HIV in Brunei is increasing even though the number is still quite small, which is between 5-10 people this year. Who knows the number may again increase next year.
My biggest challenge was taking pix at low-light areas. There was no other choice than using high ISO settings. I did use the flash but not all the time. Pix without the flash are sometimes better, which also depends on the situations (e.g. distance, etc). Zooming in also causes the aperture to get smaller which means slower shutter speed and arrgghhh....shaky pix. Unless the lens has a fix (largest) aperture and much better if there is Image Stabilisation (IS). But now I can't afford to buy any of them. I should wait for a few years to get one, maybe.
