Rebecca Harris of Radford and Eva Hinrichsen of Blacksburg tied for first in the Radford Photo Club’s April challenge, photography in the dark, using artificial light.
Harris photographed the lily and koi pond in her yard, using her Nikon D5600 SLR camera to capture the colorful fish in the fading light, according to a photo club news release.

Hinrichsen’s photo showed the underground prayer room at the Haedong Yonggungsa Buddhist Temple in Busan, South Korea. Also called the Korean Dragon Palace, it is part of a large, traditional group of buildings that together are considered a temple. This site was built into the cliff next to the Pacific Ocean some 600 years ago. Current buildings date back to the 1930s.

Joyce Crowder of Dublin won the open category with a photo of the 1944 Rat Rod owned by a musician who performs at the old Post Office near Mabry Mill on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The old Post Office, now a country store, will also host a craft market on the lawn on weekends this summer.
