As part of the Storytelling class at the final stage of this course, we had a hands-on Photo Editing session. Learning how to edit their own photographs to make visual stories more powerful and meaningful.
The day was really scorching hot, red alert was going on across the city. When we started the discussion on ‘Journalism and Photojournalism’ at Prothom Alo office, We did not understand when the three hours passed. At the end of the discussion, the students did not want to stop asking questions. Anyway, finally we had to stop.
On the 27th of April, 2024. Our Pathshala students 2nd-year 2nd semester, Four Year bachelor of Photography ( affiliated with Dhaka University, Journalism Department ) visited the Prothom Alo office as their academic learning.

I am sharing my professional photography experience with Alor School ( আলোর ইশকুল ) students at Bishwo Shahitto Kendro ( বিশ্বসাহিত্য কেন্দ্র ).
