Location
I took this photo in the Camargue in France, kitted out in chest waders, having walked through nearly a mile of mud and water to get to the location.Time
I was up early for sunrise and to catch the best light of the day.Lighting
I could see this image in my head and knew that the best light would be a sunrise to give the horses this lovely golden glow on their white manes.Equipment
This was shot of a Canon 7d k11, 300mm 2.8 lens with a tripod.Inspiration
I wanted to show the Camargue horses in a different way that the usual shots you see. A friend had said to me the night before - just focus on that shot and nothing else - best advise ever!Editing
Very little - usual sharpening and slight adjustment to the shadows.In my camera bag
My canon 7d and 300mm lens rarely leave my side when I am out - I'm very protective of them!Feedback
Look for something different and follow the advise I was given - focus on the shot you want and don't get distracted
