Daliel Leite is the sponsor / designer / webmaster for this site. He first saw Bill Dan working at Crissy Field along the San Francisco Bay waterfront in the beginning of this century, and was immediately hooked. "This can be done," he thought. "It can be learned, and I can learn how to do it." With Bill's approval, he began to build this site in the summer of 2003, and continued to expand it as more contributors sent in images and comments, and as Bill sent him more photos. The site is now complete at over 130 pages, and will in the future only be updated to correct errors or delete obsolete links. A number of Daliel's images are included anonymously / pseudonymously on the site; most page heading backgrounds are his efforts, as are the images below and the "Statue Balancing" images following this page. He is also the creator of the balances shown on the 2008 Rock Balancing Calendars, which are a free download on this site.
Daliel's latest project (in collaboration with his wife Elizabeth), is SealWatch.org, dedicated to harbor seals and the enforcement of the US Marine Mammal Protection Act and all similar laws on their behalf.
