Joshua Chowdhury spent three hours perfecting an image with Adobe Photoshop while designing the 2009 “Blutopia,” Gaston Day School’s literary publication, his co-editor Tyler Prow said.

Prow said he supplied many of the design ideas, but he usually left the execution up to Chowdhury.
“He has more of a surgical hand,” Prow said. “I have no hope of being a doctor.”
