However, the enjoyment of this book isn't limited to the Arabian horse crowd. Anyone who truly enjoys photography, natural beauty, and the equine spirit will admire the contents of this handsome book. It is destined to be a classic for collectors, photo buffs, and horse lovers alike. |
 National Champion Stallion *Padron graces the cover of ARABIANS. |
| As long as people have been photographing horses, the Arabian has been a favorite subject of the shutterbug. With its noble attitude and distinctly beautiful features, the Arabian horse is the supermodel of the equine world. | |
 Mr. Johnny Johnston |
Like the fashion industry, the
Arabian breed has its own "round table" of photographers that are
responsible for the lion's share of photos we see in various publications.
At the top of that list is one of the most colorful, long-lasting, yet
humble characters in the field, Mr. Johnny Johnston. Johnston's images have graced the walls and magazines of Arabian enthusiasts for 40 years. His work is so influential that it is the stick by which other professionals who photograph Arabians are measured. |
| In his travels and quests for the
perfect shot, Johnston has chronicled shows, human interaction with
horses, and the Arabian breed's most notable figures.
Boldheart's ARABIANS brings many
of Johnston's most famous shots and special moments to life in its 9 ½ x
12 ½ inch book. The quality of the photographic reproduction is
outstanding and much more personal than magazines can offer. ARABIANS also gives insight into Johnston's photographic process with an anecdote of a "typical" session with the master. For those who have not had the privilege of watching the professionals set their shots up, it is intriguing. |
 The straight Egyptian stallion Ruminaja Ali |
 The stallion *Khouros, a display of sheer delight. |
The imagery that Johnston captures
is magical. If you've never seen a truly elated horse captured on film,
the photo of *Khouros in mid-gallop will certainly fill that void. The
spirit of this majestic creature will make anyone smile. It is infectious,
magnificent, and it underscores the artistry of Johnston's work. Yet these are not merely photos of beautiful horses. ARABIANS is a collection of light, shadows, colors, shapes, and moments frozen in time that even the most experienced photographers can truly appreciate and learn from. |
| ARABIANS: From the Camera of Johnny Johnston is filled with prose that adds to the mood of Johnston's vision. The words coupled with the images stir the mind into fantastic dreams and puts you in the shoes of the master himself. | |
| This book is a must-have for any horse library, equine enthusiast, photographer, or aficionado of things timeless and beautiful. It also makes a terrific gift! |
