With the theme People and The Land of Eastern South in Development and Integration Progress, the festival drew nearly 1,600 photos by 240 artists from eight provinces in the region over three months.
The photos feature natural landscapes, daily life and portraits.
"Photographers are creative and their shots express the typical beauty of the people and daily life of the region," VAPA's deputy head Le Xuan Thang said at the exhibition's opening ceremony.
"The photos follow the breath of life reflecting important events in the region."
Photos entitled Noi Tam Bao (Storm's Eye) by Do Tuan Hung from Ba Ria Vung Tau and Hoa Hau Than Thien (Miss Friendly) by Tran Duy Tinh from Binh Duong received silver medals.
Tinh and Lo Van Hop (Dong Nai Province), Nguyen Ba Hao (Lam Dong) and Nguyen Nhat Tuong (Binh Duong) grabbed bronze medals.
Six artists were presented certificates and two team awards were given to Lam Dong and Dong Nai provinces.
The exhibition runs until August 4 at the provincial Workers Culture House.
