We are excited to reveal the winner of our March challenge, “Hari Raya Celebrations.” This theme invited our members to capture the spirit of Aidilfitri—from the warmth of family reunions and traditional finery to the vibrant festivities across our community.
The Winner: Joanne Chew
A huge congratulations to Joanne Chew! Her winning photograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of the theme. Featuring a multi-generational family gathering in traditional Baju Melayu and Baju Kurung, the image radiates joy, respect, and the deep cultural bonds that define the season.
