White Horses of Camargue, France

Photographing the White Horses of the Camargue has been my greatest photography experience yet. You can feel the power of the run under your feet, and it is majestically breathtaking. Splashes of water fly through the air, stallions stand off at the ocean’s edge, and running bulls add to this dramatic adventure! Join me, Patrice and the local guardians of the white horses for this very special event.
