TODAY marks a major milestone for the The Straits Times and its Picture Desk, with the launch of a photo specific micro-site, entitled "Through the Lens," or as we say in the industry, "TTL" for short.
This site within ST.com will showcase the most compelling work produced by the Straits Times photojournalists, as well as the very best pictures of the day taken by photographers from around the globe. This will include photo essays, stand-alone pictures and multimedia presentations. There is also platform to showcase readers pictures and a forum to communicate with our photojournalists. We will be posting regular blog entries from our staff and you can follow us on Twitter. Watch for our occasional equipment reviews and discussions on some of the latest techniques and trends in our industry, as well as our readers contests.
Please join us on our journey through the lens and bookmark this page to stay updated on the best pictures from The Straits Times shooters and from around the world.
