It was interesting to see the thought and effort that Leslie put into this setup – and how it paid off! The darkness of the unlit stable interior produced a contrasting background for the horse and rider, and the stable door made a great frame. Leslie explained how critical it was to capture the chemistry, interaction and emotion between Gerden, the horse, and the rider, Zoe, so I made sure I shot lots of frames. She also showed me how important it was to get the positioning of horse and rider just right. A small shift forwards into the light or backwards into the stable changed the image considerably.
