Hi, I am Mark A. Bennett, the driving force behind Obscured Planet. Welcome to my site. If you just want to jump to the images (there are 3000+ on here!) dive into the links below! You may just be here for the fantastic array of unique MUSIC and FESTIVAL images, you can find these HERE!

I specialise in live (usually music) events and capturing these is my true passion. Having spent many years on the stage as a performer and working as a technical imaging specialist (and many other complicated things!) I now specialise in photographing live performance, music, theatre and art - quite often in very challenging conditions - and I love it!
