High in the remote rugged mountains of Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland two caribou suddenly change direction and walk toward me. I quickly change to a shorter lens. Kayaking in the Bay of Fundy on Canada's east coast, coming upon towering red sandstone cliffs, sculptured by the tides, I open a waterproof camera case. Rounding the corner of a desolate abandoned house reveals a vacant window with tattered, wind tossed curtains entangled in sprawling vines. It is a photograph etched in time.
It is out of explorations such as these that I create my photographs. Born in Riverview, New Brunswick, I spent most of my youth hiking in the woods. Borrowing a 35 mm. camera and learning on my own, initiated a passion in me for this medium.

My first occupation was working as a child care worker in a treatment center for youth. In sharing my outdoor experience with these children I realized how nature could provide them with a healing environment. I now operate wilderness camps for youth during the summer months.
My years of dedication to my photography have resulted in an extensive library of images with images being offered in various galleries and gift shops. I presently reside with my wife Marilyn in the historic seaside village of Pugwash, Nova Scotia, world famous for peace, in our century old Victorian home also operates as a gallery.

Fred Horton Haut dans les montagnes escarpées éloignées du parc national du Gros-Morne, à Terre-Neuve deux caribous changent brusquement de direction et marchent vers moi. Je change rapidement ma lentille pour une lentille plus courte. En faisant du kayak dans la baie de Fundy, sur la côte est du Canada, arrivant sur de hautes falaises de grès rouge, sculptés par les marées, j'ouvre un étui étanche pour ma caméra. Franchissant le coin d'une maison abandonnée déserte, se déniche une fenêtre vacante avec des rideaux en lambeau secoués par le vent. C'est une photographie gravée dans le temps.
C'est lors d'explorations comme celles-ci que je crée mes photographies. Né à Riverview, au Nouveau-Brunswick, j'ai passé la plupart de ma jeunesse à m'aventurer dans les bois. Empruntant un appareil photo 35 mm. et autodidacte, j'ai découvert une passion pour ce média.

Ma première occupation a été de travailler comme puériculteur dans un centre de traitements pour enfants. En partageant mon expérience de plein air avec ces enfants, je compris combien la nature pouvait leur fournir un environnement propice à la guérison. Aujourd'hui, je dirige des camps de pleine nature pour jeunes pendant les mois d'été. Mes années de dévouement à ma photographie ont donné lieu à une vaste bibliothèque d'images avec des images offertes dans diverses galeries et boutiques de cadeaux. J'habite actuellement avec
ma femme Marilyn au bord de la mer dans le village historique de Pugwash, en Nouvelle-Écosse, de renommée mondiale pour la paix, dans notre maison victorienne centenaire qui fonctionne également comme galerie d'art
