    The images are slightly blurred due to the horses' quick movements

    The photographs, taken at sunset, capture the horses between the Mediterranean Sea and the two arms of the Rhone River delta

    'I love seeing horses like this - running free in the wild,' photographer Xavier Ortega says


    The horses slow to a walk once their leader has decided he's tired of running in the calm waters
