| As the days here grow both darker and colder, we draw inward to the light and warmth of our homes. While 2021 wasn’t quite the bounce-back year we had all hoped for, some of us were able to finally reconnect with family and friends. Even the simple act of gathering for a meal now has enhanced meaning, so we’re sharing food photographer Heike Herden’s blog post that includes a simple and delicious recipe for pumpkin soup (along with awesome photos of it!) to try for your next repast. This issue starts off with a post from Friends with Vision photographer Christian Hoiberg. As a child in Norway, Christian learned that wintry conditions were no reason not to go out – just dress for the weather and embrace it, as illustrated by his incredible, moody, Nordic landscape images. On a colorful note, we have a post from Friends with Vision, food and beverage photographer, Scott Choucino, whose ultra-color-saturated images are brilliantly graphic in their vibrance. And speaking of color, now’s the time to save some “green” on your holiday shopping and take advantage of the super savings we have on our Spyder and ColorReader products. |
