TODO

• mailer

Maybes

• gallery page - featured images in same style as on services page with the diagonal divide
• image-viewer (and maybe others) - internet explorer compatible blurs.

Fixes

• refreshing page on gallery and then quickly usingh history buttons breaks it
• broken layout at exactly 40em (640px) breakpoint
• galleries - click on thumb, click on different gallery, click on original gallery and the thumb list doesn't scroll to correct position to show thumb 0, it is still showing the thumb that was clicked on first

        <p class="quote-text">"As a photographic artist, my creative pursuit is to escape the attempts to categorize, characterize, compartmentalize, explain, or limit my photographic expression.

      <h2 class="heading">The Essence of the Image</h2>
      <p>The photographer Marc Leopold was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1964. He credits his artistry in photography to the benevolence of renowned mentors, and to his own constant search for the resources, intricacies and techniques that capture the essence of the image.</p>
      <p>While Marc's work tends toward nature and representational photography, he also uses his talents in both formal and commercial situations. He works, there, to achieve the same essence that he strives for when shooting nature.</p>
      <p>Marc's images are in many private collections and corporate and educational institutions. They have also appeared in a number of publications. His photographs appear in several books, including 'Two Weeks the Raven Sings', by David Reston, and in 'Once we Talk', by Jayne deVeres.</p>
      <p>Marc has also published in a wide variety of magazines and newspapers, including The International Review of Irish American Art, Erik Tweeds' Two Worlds Magazine, EVE Magazine, Parfolio, Essence, The Chicago Tribune, Chicago Derry News, Business News Today, and One Day Journal.</p>
      <p>In addition to this media exposure, Marc has exhibited at The Chicago College of Art, The Irish American Museum in Detroit, The Sur Dez Gallery in San Antonio, Phoenix City Gallery in Arizona, Wellner Department stores nationwide, Torren Gallery in California, and The Tide Gallery in Boston, and elsewhere.</p>
      <p>Marc's artistic philosophy is based on his ability to capture a fleeting moment, a solitary instant in eternity, where he feels almost transparent, like a camouflaged moth in the midst of a lush green forest, defining for posterity through his photography an elusive moment in life, captured to share with others.</p>
