The photo depicts fishing nets arranged in the coastal area of Phu Yen, a central province. The arrangement creates the shape of a dolphin swimming in the sea. A remarkable moment captured is when a fisherman’s small basket boat, painted red, maneuvers into the perfect position, perfectly aligning with the dolphin shape and showcasing a detailed eye.
“The delicate wisps of the fishing net hang beautifully beneath the water’s surface, resembling a majestic sea creature,” remarked Ruben Wu, a judge of the contest and a visual artist and photographer.
Thai Viet Hoan, the winner of the competition, was awarded a cash prize of US$10,000.
