2009 Virginia Pictures of the Year: Single entries & Best in Show

Best in Show: Hyunsoo Leo Kim, Virginian-Pilot || Dut Daniel Aketch, a Lost Boy of Sudan, holds the first documented picture of himself taken at a refugee camp in Kenya. He does not know his own age, but he knows he was young when he fled the massacre of his village of Southern Sudan. He is one of thousands of children who escaped the country's civil war.
