Un caro amico può (“deve” in quanto tale n.d.r.) permettersi anche un rimprovero con la certezza che sarà ben accolto. Allora la foto è dedicata a Giuseppe (Emmegiù) che in un'occasione ha sottolineato una mia didascalia ritenuta d'eccessiva sintesi e un'altra volta vi ha posto direttamente rimedio in modo impeccabile. Grazie Giuseppe. La torre “Vauban” di Camaret, dove risiedo, fa parte delle opere di fortificazione progettate da chi è ritenuto forse il più grande ingegnere militare della storia (classifica sempre opinabile a partire da Alesia ed un nostro conterraneo). Le sue fortificazioni fanno parte dei “Patrimoni dell'Umanità” di UNESCO ma, ancor più, le sue strategie, quali il “metodo delle parallele” sono state praticate fino alla seconda guerra mondiale. Fra le strategie di Vauban si può segnalare anche il tiro in orizzontale dei cannoni sulle navi nemiche; in pratica veniva annullato uno dei due parametri principali di tiro, ovvero “l'alzo”, sparando in orizzontale con i proiettili che “spiattellavano” sull'acqua fino a colpire il bersaglio (pare fosse molto efficace). La torre cannoniera è posta in posizione riparata e difendibile, prospicente il porto di Camaret, all'imbocco della rade de Brest. Sinceramente spiace celebrare l'ingegno, pure indiscusso, ma dedicato alla guerra, ancorché storia vecchia e ricorrente pensando che 150 anni prima Leonardo trovò consenso e le maggiori fortune proprio applicando il suo genio a macchine e sistemi bellici. Ancora gloria a G.B. Vico. E' di ieri la notizia, diffusa qui in Francia, che, ad evitare contraccolpi indesiderati, le sanzioni economiche nei confronti della Russia saranno ridotte al minimo, mentre all'Ucraina la Comunità Europea fornirà aiuti per 500 milioni di euro (in armi). Minimizzo e dico che sono perplesso ma, con facile profezia, è quanto scrissi quale ipotesi, un mese or sono, a due amici che probabilmente leggeranno anche questa nota. [ Il 18 giugno 1694 si svolse la battaglia di Camaret, un tentativo di sbarco anglo-olandese nel corso della guerra della Grande Alleanza. In quell'occasione l'artiglieria francese, sita presso la torre di Vauban ancora in costruzione e comandata dallo stesso Vauban, respinse l'attacco, e il successo ottenuto valse alla cittadina l'esenzione dall'imposta di focatico* fino alla rivoluzione francese.

I absolutely agree with your disquisitions. First of all, I am always annoyed by the presence of "foreign bodies" to the subject you want to photograph or to the context you want to describe, such as cars almost always present in the historic centers of cities. As for the specks ..... It is always sea water, micro-drops carried by the wind that leave traces of salt; we pay attention, the cover-biettivo cap always mounted but then, at the time of shooting ....
Thanks Federico, devote time to my modest production and I assure you that your picky disquisitions are always very welcome to me.
I gladly reciprocate a warm greeting.
Paul

May Brittany serve in me beautiful memories, this is a place of these, also rich in history, as you pointed out in the caption. Applause for everything.

Beautiful photo, interesting! Curious and interesting the detail on the horizontal shot, with the bullets that spittellavano on the water. You inserted the photo in mid-April,.... there have been other appendages to those 500 million euros in military aid, but these days, due to the heat and drought and the five-star crisis, we tend to forget about Ukraine.

Good evening Giancarlo. I think ...... a bit like this, that nothing is completely random but managed by a certain direction that in the prestidigitation games of our ramshackle democracies sometimes extracts the bunny, other times the lovebird according to the convenience in support of demagogy of very low level.
I am pleased with your visit, I thank you and very cordially greet you.

An interesting image of an ancient structure illuminated by a beautiful warm light. Great recovery!
I also appreciated the very exhaustive and interesting caption.
in short... I would like to see it in person! ;-)
Congratulations for the beautiful realization, a greeting

Good morning Paul, to tell the truth I immersed myself more in the discalia and in the fact that you live in Carnaret, rather than to observe the recovery ...
On the whole, however, a poetic way to describe himself.
I wish you a great day
