I was really passionate about it. Thanks to this project, I felt like being brought back to life'', the young man from western Vietnam shared about his journey with photography.
He said: ‘’ After taking photography for a while, I realize that beautiful pictures of Ben Tre are quite modest compared to other regions when shared on social networks although Ben Tre has many beautiful scenes.
