Mark spoke about the miracles of photo restoration at North Ridgeville Arts Council

Re-elect Richard Cordray – Ohio Attorney General

I met Richard Cordray in 2008 when he was campaigning for Ohio Attorney General. I was hired to photograph two of his appearances in Cleveland for publicity purposes.

By now, you’ve seen the photo of the 33-foot, 40-ton whale that crash-landed on a sailboat off Cape Town. When I first saw it, I immediately thought something was “fishy” with the picture. I’ve seen photos of huge fish hanging on ordinary fishing poles that were created by combining two different photos in Adobe Premiere Elements or
