The contest just announced the final results on March 19.3. The work "Silence" by photographer Nguyen Khanh Vu Khoa won 6th place at the annual 10 best photos award, in the Portrait category.
Share with Labor, Mr. Vu Khoa said that the work was taken in the winter of 2023 at Tia stream - an upstream water stream that is likened to a fairyland flowing into Tuyen Lam lake in Lam Dong. Appearing in the frame is a boatman who often takes tourists to visit the lake. The photo seems to "freeze" time in a peaceful moment.
