The winning entries of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation’s (PAGCOR) 2024 Photography Competition are now on display at the MET Live Mall in Pasay City, where the public can view and appreciate them.
The photo exhibit, which will run until October 14, gives the public a unique perspective into the country’s bountiful harvest season, the theme of PAGCOR’s photo contest this year.
“Through this photo exhibit, we give more people the opportunity to appreciate up close the photo entries from all over the country that made it to the grand finals, and eventually the top 24 spots that made up this year’s grand winners,” said PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco.
“This photo exhibit also gives aspiring Filipino lensmen and hobbyists a chance to learn about the inspiration behind these winning entries and the work, talent, creativity, and technical skills that made these photos stand out from the thousand others,” Tengco added.
