Photos win 15 awards
QUOTE HA NOI — Vietnamese photographer Vuong Quoc Kim won a special prize at the International Arts Photo Contest Asahi Shimbun held in Japan recently. Kim’s photo Vu Dieu Mat Troi (Sun’s Dance) was one of 15 prize-winning photos shot by Vietnamese photographers. In all, the contest handed out 130 prizes after receiving 7,944 entries from 36 nations and territories. The 64th annual contest was organised by the Japanese Photographic Association and the Asahi Shimbun newspaper. The organising board announced last Friday the names of the other Vietnamese photographers to claim Asahi Shimbun prizes. Among the list was Le Hong Linh. The Photographic Society of America’s magazine, Photography, ranked Linh fourth on its list of the world’s top 10 black-and-white photographers for 2003. All award-winning photos will be on display next year throughout major Japanese cities. — VNS Thursday, January 1, 2004 Another Vietnamese artist... |
