About the Creator
William has been a photographer and writer since he was a freshman at MIT. He has worked with both film and digital photography in both large and small formats. Today, he deftly uses both a digital SLR and computer technology to achieve the results you see in this book. When asked about his approach, Bill answered, “As a photographer, I use light and dark and color to reveal secrets—unknown places, unnoticed patterns, fleeting moments, and unseen aspects in common scenes. My photographs encode no complex verbal message. Their goal is just to produce surprise and wonder that makes viewers more attentive to what they see.” William Horton lives and works in Boulder, Colorado.
