Dinesh Krishnan

I was earlier the Director Photography for <em>Forbes India</em> and <em>ForbesLife India</em>. I have been a photojournalist since 1991, starting with a four-year stint with the Hindustan Times in Delhi, a place that I still call the best finishing school for photography. In 1995, I moved to <em>BusinessWorld</em> magazine attracted by their outstanding coverage of the emerging India. In 2005, I came to edit India’s leading photography magazine, <em>Better Photography</em>. When I am not working, I am a fan of the outdoors and road trips. I was able to combine all these loves when I did a series of motorcycle trips to the Himalayas to document the fragile ecosystem and its people. This culminated in a exhibition of photographs called “Endless Horizons” at the IGNCA, Delhi, in January 2000, along with two other photographers, Gurinder Osan and the late Pradeep Bhatia. I have enjoyed the role photography plays in what is an otherwise word-dominated profession of journalism.
