I’ve been changing the banner photo for this blog from time to time. The dimensions are pretty exact — 770 by 140 pixels. It’s been fun to look through my photo file to find usable photos I can crop to get something that will fit those specs. Most won’t.
The one above is from a trip my sisters and I took to the settlement (just a crossroads, really) called Callison, in Greenwood County, SC. It’s named for our great-great-grandfather James Callison. He came to the U.S. “from Ireland”, it’s said, in 1845. Apparently he arrived in Charleston and eventually made his way north to the Greenwood area.
My sister Jean wanted her photo taken standing beside the Callison sign. She’s not visible in the shot. My sister Margaret is, however; she’s way in the background, just about in the middle of the image, standing beside the sign at the other end of Callison. Yes, that’s how big Callison is.
