2013 International Photo Contest winners

The Randolph College International Photo Contest winners have been announced.

First Place
Children Selling Floating Lanterns in Hoi An, Vietnam, by Ngoc “Kelly” Pham ’16

Hoi An is known for its beautiful lanterns that line streets and are floated down the river. Originally, the lanterns were released to guide spirits to a happy resting place. Today, one night each month is designated as a “lantern festival” when all electric lights are turned off and lanterns are used instead.

Second Place
