John Mule No. 1
Name: Milo
Photographer Notes: While Milo might be a smartass, he’s no Ass. So let’s clarify what a Mule is. A mule is the offspring of a male Donkey (Jackass) and a female Horse (Mare). A mule has the athletic ability of a horse and the intelligence of a donkey. And yes, the ears of a donkey. They are a kind hardworking breed that has been around for millennia. They are thought to be the first manmade crossbreeds. For my horse portraits, I would almost always choose an image where both ears where forward but it felt fitting to do something a little different with Milo. The cross of his ears makes the perfect X shape with his head. I think it also shows his intelligence. He’s listening to you and at the same time eavesdropping on the table behind him.
