As we all know, COVID-19 has been affecting us in one way or another. Whether you have the illness, know someone with it, face social isolation and distancing, or are acclimating to changes in employment, the past few weeks have impacted modern life as we know it.
In light of this situation, from Friday, March 27th at 11:59 PM EST to April 10th at 6:00 PM EST, all print and wall art development and shipping will be put on hold. However, I will still be accepting orders as usual. When the stay at home mandate in question has been lifted, orders will be fulfilled and shipped in the order they were received. I sincerely apologise for any inconveniences this may cause. I will continue to update you as more developments occur.
Furthermore, there will be no changes in the frequency with which I will be posting on this page and interacting with all of you. Additionally, the giveaway event will occur as scheduled, on Sunday, March 29th at 5:30 PM EST. However, please note that due to the circumstances, there will be a delay in the time it takes for the winner to receive their free print – the earliest expected delivery date would be around April 22nd.
This is a strange and challenging time for all of us. In order to adjust to the new situation we have found ourselves in, it is critical to abide by the instructions and advice from our health and government officials. Please stay indoors and avoid outside excursions – as an outdoor photographer, I am sure you can understand how much it pains for me to say this.
While it is important to take care of our physical health, our mental health must be maintained as well. Find ways to keep busy or pass the time – if you are unable to find anyway to do this, I think looking at photography, interacting with my Facebook page, and joining my Facebook group are excellent ways to start!

Lastly, if you would like to contribute to the fight against the coronavirus outbreak, I’ve provided a donation link to the CDC Foundation, whose efforts will continue to be pivotal during this time.
It is true that my love for photography and art grows day by day, but not at the expense of the health and safety of my fans, customers, clients, friends, and family. As always, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to message me on Facebook or email me at varun@varun-visuals.com.
Stay safe and stay healthy my friends.
Best wishes,
Varun Nagendra
Edit: I apologize for the late notice regarding these details. The post was scheduled to go live yesterday immediately after receiving notice of the new updates. Unfortunately, this did not happen due to some technical issues. I will regularly be checking my shop page and messages all day today to hopefully get your orders fulfilled before all manufacturing and shipping is officially put on hold.
