An ongoing exhibition in Hanoi is highlighting precious family memories captured in outstanding entries of a six-month photography competition.

The exhibition, entitled 'Mai am gia dinh Viet' (Vietnamese homes), was opened at the Vietnamese Women's Museum in Hoan Kiem District on Friday and will run until Sunday.

'Vietnamese homes' showcases 70 best photos chosen from a pool of nearly 1,000 entries submitted by 238 participants to a photography competition organized by Nguoi Ha Noi (Hanoian) newspaper and Nguoi Lam Bao (Journalist) online magazine.

The six-month contest, running from June, was held in observation of the Vietnamese Family Day (June 28).

Of the 70 images on display, two were awarded second prizes, three won the third prizes, and 11 received consolidation prizes.

There was no first-prize winner.
