Daniel H. Bennett was born in London in 1965 and lived in England until moving to the United States in 2000, settling in Northern Colorado.
His interest in vision and observation of the behavior of light has been life-long. On a trip to France as a young man his hosts called him “Monsieur Tête-en-l’air” (Mr. Head-in-the-air) due to his always watching for halos, rainbows, sun-dogs (parhelia), etc. He was particularly influenced by a book written in 1939 (published in English in 1954, Dover) by Professor M. Minnaert, called The Nature of Light and Colour in the Open Air. A Field Guide to Time-Varying Light Sources was conceived as a modern successor to that book, and adopts a similar approach, while revealing the secrets of modern light sources.
Daniel is married with four children, a motorcycle and two accordions.
The Field Guide is available from Amazon and other outlets.

Here's my blog, where I'll write articles of interest, things I've learned, tutorials, suggestions for lights to go look at, musings, etc.
I'm excited to be the exhibiting artist this month at the Land Of A Thousand Hills coffee shop in Roswell, GA!
These photos are all from my time-varying lights project, and were selected from my online gallery: http://photo.peeringbear.com/p188493375 (where you can order prints if you don't happen to be in Roswell, GA...
