Two Bethlehem men have been named winners in the 2015 Olympus InVision college photography contest. Glenn D.

Second place went to Sathya Ram, of Lehigh University, for “Solo,” an inkjet print.

The contest was judged by Rick Smolan, a former Time, Life and National Geographic photographer best known as the co-creator of the Day in the Life book series. The works selected for the photography contest exhibition are on display at the Banana Factory, 25 W. Third St., Bethlehem, through Dec. 13.
