I had meant to explain the (current) header image for this blog, but hadn’t yet. \u00a0My lack of visual creativity made it difficult to pick a header image because the dimensions are nothing at all like a regular photo. \u00a0And since this is really just a personal blog I wanted to use some picture I had taken, as opposed to just using a theme that already looked decent by default. \u00a0In any case, I wound up going with a further crop of the following already-cropped image:<\/p>\n
