This week, food photographer Edward Pond is launching his new book about food in India. The title is a mouthful (appropriately); it's I travelled to India, got bitten by a dog, went back home and got a bunch of rabies shots, then flew back to India and ate the country. See the video to get a better idea of what's inside.
Apart from the fact that he contributed the images for the popular Earth to Table by Jeff Crump and Bettina Schormann, Pond is apparently also the man who took the picture of the chicken soup on the current Campbell's Soup label (which seems to put him in some kind of artistic relationship with Andy Warhol, although I have no word for what that might be.) In any case, I guarantee that browsing his site will make your mouth water.
He'll be on CBC Radio's Metro Morning next Tuesday, April 6 around 6:45 a.m. to talk about it with Matt Galloway, and it'll be available around town in better bookstores like Book City, the Cookbook Store, Swipe, Type, Good Egg and This Ain't the Rosedale Library.

You're right, browsing Edward Pond's site did make my mouth water. Thanks for the informative post! I plan on travelling to India this coming May... and Edward Pond's photos just made me look forward to it even more.
