Winning entries in the "When Blossoms Dance" photo competition of the annual Hong Kong Flower Show, which was held in March at Victoria Park, are on display in Kowloon Park Arcade from today (June 15) until July 15, from 7am to 11pm daily. Admission to the exhibition is free.
The photo competition, jointly organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and the Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB), is one of the show's major fringe activities to promote community greening.
The competition was divided into three categories - Category A: Portrait of TVB Artistes and Miss Hong Kong (Open Section and Student Section); Category B: Flowers; and Category C: Snapshots.
This year the competition received over 5 500 entries including photographs of beautiful flowers and plants, interesting features, and portraits of artistes from TVB and Miss Hong Kong title holders posing among the garden displays.
The winning entries have also been uploaded onto the LCSD webpage at www.lcsd.gov.hk/en/hkfs/2015/photo_rs.html. For enquiries, please call 2601 8260.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust was the major sponsor of this year's flower show while the photo competition was sponsored by Manfrotto Distribution HK Limited and Tamron Industries (Hong Kong) Limited.
