Photography Newsletter: January 2021

Dearest Photographers and Appreciators of Photography,

Happy New Year and welcome to the first @CRPhotography newsletter for 2021!

4/13/13 Pitt Fireworks 2 of 9: Red and Green Mix

Well, 2020 was...a year. From the very first month, it seemed like 2020 was out to get us -- and no crevice of the world seemed to be exempt from its wrath, whether it be from the pandemic, fires, explosions, floods...or even murder hornets. The twelve months of 2020 seemed stubbornly determined to prolong themselves like an almost empty shampoo bottle refilling itself with water.

Many of us experienced deep loss this year. We were trapped in our homes and felt the sting of loneliness, some of us even cursing the number of social gatherings we turned down before.

But, 2020 was also the year that some pretty incredible things happened. We were in isolation, but we still found ways to connect with people. We applauded the frontline workers of the pandemic, we sang with each other from our balconies. We had more video calls than ever before and even reconnected with people we hadn't spoken to in a long time.

In 2020, people all over the world rose up to protest police violence, racial injustice and social inequality and this time, more people listened.

And, in less than a year multiple vaccines were developed and rolled out to combat the spread of the pandemic.

While most of us may not have possessed the means nor the healthy mind-space required to start a new business or master a new skill in quarantine, we all accomplished one thing together: we persevered. And though 2021 may not have had the amazing start that many of us were hoping for, after the year we've had, we're already better equipped for the challenges to come.

Much love to all of you for 2021.

Now, without further ado, I present to you the @CRPhotography January 2021 Photography Newsletter.
