▶ Photographer's note:
On 1 October 2019, Flickr's editors selected this image for inclusion in Flickr's Explore feature.
The image entered at position #139 out of 500 selected that day. At some point afterward, it was 'bumped' from the rolls. (There are, indeed, numerous posts on Flickr-related forums wondering at the arcane year-to-year mutability of Flickr's Explore algorithm.)

👎 Rejections:
☞ On 14 October 2025, an administrator for the Flickr group "Accumulations rejected this photo for NOT displaying a crowd. And, yet, their own rules state (emphasis mine): "CROWDS CAN BE PERMITTED TOO." Follow your own rules!
☞ On 18 June 2025, the administrator for the Flickr group "Immagini : stimolo, sogno, illuminazione" rejected this photo for NOT displaying "stimulus, dream, or enlightenment." No need to tarry with the unenlightened.

▶ "Black Sheep Ensemble is a modern brass and percussion band from Atlanta, Georgia. Our performances are rooted in Second Line traditions but with a repertoire that blends Prohibition-era Swing, Jazz, Balkan, Latin, Ska, Punk, and more into one danceable sound. We bring a crowd to its feet and keep them there. Low brass belts out the bass line while drums drive the rhythm."

***************
▶ On this day (26 June) in 2015, the United States Supreme Court ruled, 5-4, that the U.S. Constitution grants same-sex couples the right to marry and that the Constitution’s guarantees of due process and equal protection under the law mean that states cannot ban same-sex marriages.
— PBS
▶"No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization’s oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right. The judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit is reversed. It is so ordered."

Harvest Ale 2000
11.5% alc/vol
— J.W. Lees & Co. (Manchester, UK).
Brewed and bottled in Y2K; stored in my 'cellar' for twenty-one years; tasted on 29 January 2021.
***************
▶ "Though J.W. Lees Brewery of Middleton, England, has been crafting quality beer since 1876, it wasn't until 1986 that it released its delectable sipper into the world. Brewed with the choicest [me: ugh] Maris Otter malt [me: sublime] and East Kent Goldings hops [ibid.], it has the legs to go the distance. The brewery uses a house-developed yeast strain to ferment the brew in original open copper-lined vessels."
— Vintage Beer (Patrick Dawson): Storey Publishing, 2014.
***************
▶ Me:
---> Considering the Harvest Ale's venerable age, its carbonic condition and head retention were remarkably good. In fact, they were that of a 'fresh' beer. Likewise the clarity —just see-through deep garnet color— was good.
---> In the aroma, I sniffed chocolate and dark berries. Taking a sip, I tasted the same but with secondary flavors of oloroso sherry and ruby port. Taking a gulp, I tasted a semi-sweet beer, with an unctuous finish (in a good way). Any burn from its alcoholic strength (11.5%) had been mellowed over time.
---> I might have enjoyed a flourless chocolate dessert (or a fine Stilton cheese) with the beer but, given such a divine taste of liquid history, I enjoyed it per ipsum.
***************
▶ Photographer's note.
On 5 July 2024, more than three years after I had submitted this photo to the Flickr group, Food and Drinks creative photography, the administrator suddenly rejected it (and seven other food/drink photos of mine), despite it (and they) satisfying the stipulated rules of the group. Capricious nonsense.

▶ This was the maximum point (Well, almost. Maximum had occurred 8 minutes earlier, at 4:03 am) of a nearly 6-hour partial lunar eclipse, the longest such since year 1440 and not to recur at such length until the year 2669.
If you missed it, fret not! North America will be witness to, not one, but two TOTAL lunar eclipses next year, on 15 May and 7 November 2022. (Your geographical results may differ. Check your local listings.)

▶ Photographer's notes:
Something is seriously off-kilter with Flickr's statistic-counter. At the beginning of December 2022, this photo had been seen just over 1,000 times (and that's after being posted in December 2001). Now, at the end of December 2022, Flickr's statistic counter shows over 8,000 views. It's an interesting image...but that good? Except with pixie-dust, that's highly improbable.
☞ On 9 September 2024, the administrator for the Flickr group Panasonic Lumix 100-300 Leica 100-400 —missing in action for several years— suddenly returned with a vengeance. Among other actions, they rejected, en masse, TWENTY-THREE of my photographs, all taken with the Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300/F4.0-5.6 lens, all abiding by their 'rules.' The tranche was so large that Flickr listed only a dozen of the rejects. This image was one of them.

▶ "At one time Chattanooga was a destination for some of the best music in the South. And Ninth Street, or the Big Nine, was where you went to find it. From the early 20th century into the 1970s, the Big Nine was a mecca for black music and entertainment: Tennessee’s very own Harlem. Now, Ninth Street is called MLK Boulevard, and the few old buildings that still exist there [such as the Whole Note Restaurant and Lounge] are carcasses of the former stores and nightclubs."

**************
▶ "In 1974, three years after the band's inception, Weather Report became one of the world's most popular jazz groups due to their uncompromising originality and musicianship. This was the year that founding member Miroslav Vitous was replaced by Alphonso Johnson, who became a critical asset as both a fluid, creative bassist and a composer. Drummer Ishmael Wilburn and Brazilian percussionist Dom Um Romao, with a shifting cast of supporting players, laid the foundation for the band's most exciting incarnation yet. The overdue reissue of Mysterious Traveller is a welcome acknowledgment of this mid-period lineup's importance in the evolution of fusion."
**************
▶ To me, 1974's Mysterious Traveller marked Weather Report's transition from the improvisational sound of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, in its first albums, to the more composed-through funk/rock vamping of its later efforts. It's also my personal pre-Jaco (Pastorius) favorite of Weather Report's oeuvre, and, in particular, the cuts: Blackthorn Rose with a beautiful soprano sax/piano duet, the miniature electronica of American Tango, the ethereal (and mysterious) title track, Mysterious Traveller, and the jazz-funk workout of Cucumber Slumber.

Tynt Meadow English Trappist Ale
— English Trappist beer, brewed at Mount St Bernard Abbey, in the town of Coalville, in Leicestershire, England, UK.
Imported bottle (330 ml / 11.2 fl.oz), tasted in...
Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
20 September 2022
***************
▶ How did it taste?
Short answer: delicious!
Long answer:
☞ Burnished-copper appearance; clarity, good. Poured well-conditioned, with a long-lived off-white head and some nice lacing down the glass...possibly because of bottle-conditioning (with live yeast) which may have contributed a measure of oxygen-scavenging (i.e, active protection against staling). Thus, the beer tasted fresh, despite its trans-Atlantic voyage.
☞ The principal flavor was dark fruit with lesser motifs of bitter chocolate and treacle. Interestingly, the monastery does NOT use Belgian yeast (which is the norm for most Trappist ales) but an unidentified English yeast-strain (in addition to English barley and hops, both also unspecified) that seemed to be noticeable as a fruit-cake flavor. It finished in smooth fashion, although the alcohol (7.4% alcohol-by-volume, i.e., abv) did seem to create a strong presence in the aftertaste. (I detest the illogical neologism "drinkable.").
***************
▶ The monks of Mount St Bernard Abbey quote Psalm 104:
"You make the grass grow for the cattle and the plants to serve man’s needs, that he may bring forth bread from the earth and wine to cheer man’s heart.."
▶ Me:
Beer, of course, is LIQUID bread. "Give us this day our daily bread."

On 6 May 2024, the administrator for the Flickr group "PLANET EARTH OUR HOME" rejected this photo. According to the group rules, the image must depict "nature, animals, birds, insects, flowers, trees, landscapes, seascapes, clouds, sunsets, architecture, [or] transport" [emphasis mine]. As this IS an image of a flower and nature, why was it rejected? The administrator has not responded to my query.

NASA's Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory, STEREO has observed the recently discovered Comet Jacques as it passed by its nearest approach to the Sun (July 1-6, 2014). The wide field instrument on board STEREO (Ahead) showed the comet with its elongated tail being stretched and pummeled by the gusty solar wind streaming from the Sun. Also visible near the center of the image is the bright planet Venus. The Sun is just out of the field of view to the right. Comet Jacques is traveling through space at about 180,000 km per hour (110,000 mph). It may brighten enough to be seen with the naked eye.

▶ "Grant Park was (and is) Atlanta's first city-owned public park. It now houses Zoo Atlanta, [formerly] the Cyclorama, and a residential area. The park was named after Lemuel P. Grant, who donated the land to Atlanta in 1883. Grant was a railroad engineer, who designed the fortifications for Atlanta during the Civil War, and, later, a successful Atlanta businessman. Grant Park, now 131.5 acres, has an average of two million visitors each year."

New Glarus Spotted Cow: enjoyed from a bottle (but poured in a glass), in...
Atlanta, Georgia.
31 December 2019 - 1 January 2020.
*************
▶ On New Year's Eve, a friend surprised me with Spotted Cow —a bottle-conditioned cream ale from New Glarus Brewing in Wisconsin. I had forgotten how this light ale, in its unassuming manner, is just tasty enough, with just enough fruity character, to just rise above a plain-drinking beer. It won't satisfy the pastry-beer crowd. Too bad for them. Sconnie!

"English Export Stout"
6.9% alcohol
☞ "Deeply roasty, with a hypnotic darkness and scary drinkability. Monsters covet and hoard the British malt notes of espresso, & light toffee."
☞ Me: Lovely British Maris Otter malt for base; sapid but not overdone treacle from dark malts; alcoholic slap at end dries the finish.
▶ Calusa Ringstrasse (right)
"Vienna-style Lager"
5.5% alcohol
☞ "A brilliant clarity of autumnal copper reveals the toasted, full character of the finest continental malt and crisp finish of noble hops.
☞ Me: Not "brilliantly" clear, but a well-executed lager nonetheless, expressing lightly toasted crackers, an elegant (not fruity) sweet middle, and, indeed, a crisp finish.

Commercial cask ale in America —after a mini-resurgence from the late 1980s through the late 20-aughts— appears moribund, relegated (with rare exceptions) to one-offs, terrible technique, and Frankensteinian experiments in extranea.
Feeling sad about that (and thirsty).
15 July 2019.
***************
▶ This is a redo of a photo taken in 2012 at a cask ale festival at Mad Fox Brewing, in Falls Church, Virginia. The brewpub was not one of those one-off offenders, but just the opposite: a fierce advocate for real real ale. Unfortunately, after 9 years of operation, it closed in July 2019.

A hazy and cloudy sky slightly obscured the Super Cold Moon, as it rose, after sunset, over...

▶ More pics: here.
**************
▶ Visible moon surface: 100%
Distance to Earth: 364,168 km (226,283.5 mi)
Moon phase: Full Moon
Moonrise: 5:57 PM ET
Azimuth: 68.0 °
***************
▶ "The Full Moon will crest on the evening of Sunday, December 3 and reach “perigee“—the point in its orbit at which it is closest to Earth—early morning of Monday, December 4. When a Full Moon rises at perigee, the Moon appears up to 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter than usual. While December’s Supermoon is the only one in 2017, it’s the first of three Supermoons in succession. The next two are in January (2018)—two full Moons in one month."
▶ "The Full Cold Moon —or the Full Long Nights Moon— is so named because, during December, the winter cold fastens its grip and nights are at their longest and darkest. It is also sometimes called the Moon before Yule. The term Long Night Moon is a doubly appropriate name because the midwinter night is indeed long, and because the Moon is above the horizon for a long time. The midwinter full Moon has a high trajectory across the sky because it is opposite a low Sun."

Small sculpture by Klara Sever.
Falls Church, Virginia, USA.
24 September 2016.
***************
▶ "Klara Sever was born Klara Klein in 1935 in Slovakia. She studied at the School of Art and Design and at the Comenius University in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia. She worked as a sculptor and restorer on some of Czechoslovakia’s most beautiful baroque castles, and also designed a new architectural sculpture for the interior of the National Theater.
She and her family were able to gain release from a Nazi concentration camp during WWII, remaining in hiding until the end of the war. During the Soviet occupation of the late 1960s, she and her husband were able to escape to Austria.
Since immigrating to the United States, Mrs. Sever has dedicated all her time to sculpting. She has exhibited in Washington at the Marlboro Gallery, the Art Barn, the Gallery House, and the George Meany Center. She has received awards at the National Small Sculpture Competition.
In New York, she exhibited with the Jack Gallery in Soho, Best of Woman Art, and at juried shows at Pen & Brush. Her originals, as well as her reproductions, can be found in numerous private collections in Europe and the United States. Her bronze relief of one of the founders of the Czechoslovak Republic hangs in the American Embassy in Prague."

Just after 7 am, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal announced, "Fire in the hole," and the controlled implosion of the Georgia Archives building commenced.
Georgia Archives
Atlanta (Capitol Gateway), Georgia, USA.
5 March 2017 (7:04:05 am).
▶ More pics: here.
*******************
▶ "The monolithic Georgia Archives —the 14-story tall "White Ice Cube" building in downtown Atlanta, Georgia— was imploded on Sunday, 5 March 2017, just after 7am, collapsing into a subterranean 4-story parking garage.
When the building was built in 1965 on Capitol Avenue near the Georgia State Capitol, it was called the most modern archival facility in the nation. But by the late 1990s, engineers determined that issues related to ground water leakage and nearby freeway construction would be inordinately expensive to repair.
In 2003, the new Georgia Archives facilities opened in Morrow near Clayton State University. By 2004, the adjacent Southeast Regional Branch of the National Archives opened to the public.
The building has remained empty since that point. Officials said after the current structure is demolished, a new state courts building will be constructed, providing a new home for the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia Supreme Court."
