» Have you ever wondered what the adage "A picture is worth a thousand words" mean? Through their lenses, what photographers saw was beyond words. You can catch on to that through the photographs they captured, which convey their thoughts, experiences and resolves. To get a clearer picture, Guru speaks to talented photographers, whose current works are on display, asking them to share their definitions of photography. In celebration of World Photography Day today, we also list photography workshops and talks which you can get inspiration from, not to mention a contest and an open campaign.

With a newfangled marijuana business popping up around the city, we list dispensaries in Bangkok for those who are curious. We also asked the weedness-owners about their backgrounds and basics for begin-stoners.
