White horses of the Camargue

The first evening of the horse shoot here in France was very exciting. Over and over again we ran the horses in front of the sun to produce some very dynamic silhouettes. Everyone got amazing pictures and I'm sure the horses had a lot of fun, too. I used a shutter speed of 1/1250 to freeze the splashing water and the details in the horses, and f/11 guaranteed enough depth of field. I used a 24-105mm lens handheld. Auto ISO made sure the exposure was correct. We were all standing in water wearing waterproof boots as we shot the galloping horses, and sometimes we got a bit wet as the horses ran past us. It was amazing.
