chronicles of an explorer

Friday, March 7, 2008

Ben Horton: At the age of 26, Ben Horton’s biography reads like that of a seasoned explorer. Highly influenced by his love of travel and adventure and his constant search for something new, his imagery is vibrant with fresh and creative energy. Raised in Bermuda, Ben Horton has spent the majority of his life traveling and seeking out new adventure. Ben is the recipient of the National Geographic Society’s first Young Explorer award for research on Cocos Island involving shark poaching. This led to a 2 month Expedition to Ellesmere Island in the Canadian Arctic with Arctic legend Will Steger. As his career has developed, Ben has adapted writing and the organization of his own expeditions to complement his photography. To support his conservation photography, which is Ben’s passion, he works as a fashion and advertising photographer.
