William Horton, a Boulder, Colorado, photographer, has won Camera Obscura Journal’s Outstanding Professional Photography Award, announced Monday, March 1. Along with publication in the upcoming issue of the journal, Mr. Horton received a monetary prize.

The semi-annual competition was open to professional and amateur photographers worldwide. The theme for this competition was the meaning of the word “Bond.”
