This picture I made during a walk in the woods near Nimwegen( holland). By coinsedence we met, it was a very beautiful horse and of course I took some picturesTime
It was in the afternoon on a very nice and sunny dayLighting
The light was not ideal, full sun with a cloud no and then, luckely the horse was resting in the shadow, the ideal situation for me to take a shotEquipment
Actualy I only used my camera and kitlens ( nikon d5300 & sigma 18-50mm f2.8). I never use flash but very often a tripod or jobyInspiration
This is an exceptional beautiful animal, you do not need extra inspiration, it is logic when you see an animal like thisEditing
The background was very distubing so I used photoshop to darken it so that it will fade into nothingIn my camera bag
I have lowpro 400AW backpack with camera, zoomlens nikon70-300mm,Tokina 11-20mm and kitlens, ND 110 and some batteriesFeedback
The best way to make this kind of pictures is simple, take you time to let the horse get used to you and the camera, then take pictures
