the dramm around Bastogne... sent on August 23, 2021 (15:35) by Francesco Della Santa. 45 comments, 1305 views. [retina]

at 10mm, 1/1000 f/8.0, ISO 100, hand held.

Questa foto ed il suo titolo vogliono ricordare un momento drammatico della storia del '900 ed in particolare della cittadina di Bastogne nelle Ardenne al confine con il Lussemburgo. Infatti all'alba di un gelido 16 dicembre 1944 iniziava l'ultima grande offensiva della Germania nazista contro gli alleati con lo scopo di riconquistare il Belgio e di evitare l'invasione alleata della Germania da occidente. Hitler aveva schierato su questo fronte le migliori divisioni corrazzate del suo esercito al comando del feldmaresciallo Model : la 6. SS-Panzer-Armee delle Wafen SS, la 5. Panzerarmee della Wehrmacht e la 7 armata. Uno schieramento veramente impressionante e fortemente motivato contro un esercito numericamente per mezzi ed uomini nettamente superiore, ma che non si aspettava assolutamente questa offensiva. L'effetto sorpresa delle Panzer divisioni fu micidiale, ma il terreno montagnoso e ricoperto da molta neve e nebbie associato alle strette strade di campagna rallentarono la marcia dei Panzer permettendo agli alleati inizialmente sorpresi ed impauriti di riorganizzarsi e di poter arrestare l'offensiva. Fu l'ultimo colpo di coda del micidiale esercito tedesco, ma rappresentò la fine per il Reich che di li a poco nel 1945 subì l'invasione della Germania da occidente da parte degli alleati e dell'Armata rossa da est concludendo cosi una delle pagine più brutte e drammatiche della storia dell'umanità. Foto ripresa nel mio viaggio in Olanda-Belgio e Lussemburgo agosto 2021. Buona visione.

Now it looks like a beautiful country place between the green and yellow of the bales.
Ma yesterday...
Your beautiful shot does not say what you then perfectly told.
We hope it stays as you frame forever .

Threatening sky that goes well with the dramatic history of these places. This summer I too visited places where flowers grow on the bunkers of a German defensive line and it is impressive to think about the history of these places and the sufferings for us who savor them with the eyes of the serene tourist. Congratulations for the shot and the caption that I read carefully. Have a nice day. Magú
