Sharing his feelings after his photo after winning two awards, Mr. Prabu Mohan said: “I feel very happy when receiving the news from the organizers that the photo I took won the prizes. I took a lot of photos in Hanoi during the social gap, it was very different from usual time”.
Parabu Mohan said that these awards were of great importance to him because the photo was taken during a difficult time. Previously, he had never submitted a photo to any contest but this time he decided to join in the hope that everyone knew how fiercely the Vietnamese fought against the COVID-19 pandemic.
