Thekrishankumar - Krishan Kumar

In just over a week I will be embarking on my most ambitious project since visiting Mount Everest and the fabled Himalayas. Until March I will be exploring the mountains, deserts, seas and cities of the United Arab Emirates. 

It will be a return to photographing the globe and a focus on the geography and culture that resides on the shores of the Persian Gulf. I will be regularly blogging about the country and at the end will have select pieces going into a very exciting exhibition in London that I am apart of. 

Stay tuned for all the Arabian peninsula has to offer, I can’t wait to be back in a desert!

My biggest fears

Storm chaser down under

A British photographer made the lightning decision to quit the UK to chase storms Down Under and was rewarded with these striking shots. Oliver Kay, 40, left his dead-end IT job in Manchester almost a decade ago with wife Helen in search of a new life in Perth, Western Australia. He mixes a job with one of Perth’s biggest mining companies with his weekend passion of photography. And Oliver struck gold after being woken up by thunder at 3.30 in the morning and taking amazing pictures of lightning filling the sky above Hillary’s Marina in his adopted home city.

What’s the coolest thing you’ve made with code?

Programming drones is probably the funnest thing I've learned so far. Karlie Kloss, #HourOfCode

Programmers in movies vs in real life

The real importance is not just the people who want to go into tech jobs, we believe that a basic understanding of how technology works is important to all jobs.

An Artist’s Studio Constructed Entirely Out of Cardboard

Tom Burckhardt has fulfilled his childhood fantasy. He constructed a realistic clubhouse entirely out of cardboard! Ordinarily a painter, he built this artist’s studio using only hot glue and black paint, and pieced together a floor, roof, and elaborate work stations. The installation has been touring art museums as an exhibit since its creation in 2005.

“This iPhone you’re interacting with isn’t a mysterious piece of magic that just appeared in your hands. Engineers designed it, and engineers made it, and everything that it does somebody had to figure out how to make.”
