I have loved the camera for many years, and my subjects for many more years, and I often imagine new photographs that I\u2019d love to take, sketch them out and then try to make them with my camera.<\/p>\n<p>I imagine and sketch many more ideas than I take photographs in a year, but it is a challenge I relish \u2014 there are some sketches that I\u2019m still trying to turn into photographs years after they\u2019ve been sketched.<\/p>\n<p>This photograph was based on one of those sketches, and I am so proud of it. It took me twenty-two months from sketch to photograph \u2014 all you need is 1\/200th of a second, but it can take a lifetime to find that 1\/200th. Especially when you need two zebra\u2019s to position their heads in the shape of a heart!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12161,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[167,222,153],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12157","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-other-wildlife","7":"product_cat-square","8":"product_cat-zebra","9":"product_shipping_class-print","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"featured","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-variable"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/12157","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12157"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/12157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12166,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/12157\/revisions\/12166"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=12157"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=12157"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiebowen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=12157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
