Article Summary:

Award winning photographer and Wetpixel member Fergus Kennedy (Ferg42) is featured in a beautiful new TV commercial for the Canon 7D, which follows him on a shoot with wild horses in the Camargue region in the south of France.

There is also a short film about the whole shoot, which is all topside although Fergus does get his in the water, on the Canon website.

Ha ha, brilliant.As for the good-looking part, I did have a talented make-up artist- first time I've waded into a muddy salt-marsh in make-up! Sounds like you're having a hard life over there surrounded by Italian girls. We're ankle-deep in slushy snow here as you've probably heard.
