{"product_id":"stephanie","title":"The Hare With The Amber Eyes","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe book in Stephanie's hands is 'The Hare With The Amber Eyes' by Edmund De Waal.  Weird that.  All that wisdom about generational trauma and loss sat right there in Stephanie's lap and we were too busy taking pictures in the sun to consider actually reading it.  Maybe that's the point.  The hard Netsuke are the patient, multi-generational observers without any real skin in the game whilst we fragile humans should maybe grab the sunny days whilst we can.  Not to do so is often a mistake driven by fear.   The Netsuke are watching!   So, I try to make my photographs punchy and my journal an interesting read for those into whose laps it will one day fall.  Sure, things don't always fall out the way I intended but often this not for the reason that someone might think.  People believe most readily that which reinforces their own feelings of self worth.  Rarely do they dig deeper which is maybe where the karma lies because diamonds don't lie in the grass.  But two things I do know.  When I go forth with a camera with courage the story is rarely a boring one and Stephanie looks amazing in this photograph of her that I created. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fruit Dragon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58666595746136,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/9722\/2232\/files\/Stephanie_1of1.jpg?v=1791230585","url":"https:\/\/www.fruitdragon.co.uk\/products\/stephanie","provider":"Fruit Dragon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
