JJ Ballarina, from Equus. “This image was very much about the Royal Yard of Ahjiman in the United Arab Emirates. I used a flash to lend ambiguity to the image. Is it a frame? Or a window? This Chestnut is celebrated as a supermodel of the equine world, and this photo was taken in front of his stable window. The photograph is reminiscent of Whistlejacket, by Stubbs, a British sports painter.”
