Through the Looking-Glass

Photography is one of the fastest-developing art forms or hobbies in the country, and I'm sure most readers enjoy taking the occasional snapshot with their cellphones at the very least. To gain an idea of the level of skill we have attained, look no further than our centerfold where we report on the exhibition by the Photographic Society of BUET. No more needs to be said here on this matter: the images speak for themselves.
