To clarify: the title is excerpted from Act 1 of Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost. The full quote goes: "Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguile; So ere you find where light in darkness lies, Your light grows dark by losing of your eyes." It's a warning against spending too much of your life in scholarly pursuits.

All In the Eye?
A couple of years ago when I quit teaching, I cast about for some interesting ways to spend my now copious free time. This blog is one of them. Another was photography. I began carrying a digital camera everywhere I went and fell into the habit of looking at my surroundings as potential pictures. I also began to search the net for the work of good photographers I might emulate. This guy is one of the best I have yet found. He's amazing! His name is Mark Ridout, he's from Ontario, and his work is fantastic.
Check it out here. He specializes in wedding photography and it's unlike anything you have ever seen before. All of his work is good, but I was particularly impressed by his Cuba album.
