Do you know your Pappenheimers?
Pappenheim is a very special town in Bavaria, Germany. For example, the brilliant composer (papa) Haydn wrote the absolute masterpiece 'Pappenheimer Marsch' about Pappenheim's role in the Thirty Years' War. There are now unofficial remix versions of the popular piece in circulation in which hard acid beats also whip up various army units prior to military operations. Pappenheim is also the noble family that for centuries had their main residence in the beautiful castle in my photo. The impressive castle towers high above the historic town and is a real landmark. It's great to watch this from a distance. The fortress has a rich history of bloody battles in which geopolitical interests have played a major role. To come back to the terrible 30 Years War, it is interesting to say that the famous German and Dutch saying or expression 'I know my Pappenheimers' dates from that time. The German general Baron Albrecht von Wallenstein was helped at that time by units of Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim. Von Wallenstein was suspected of treason around 1632. Several regiments had deserted him by then, but the Pappenheimers remained loyal to them and then he said 'I know my Pappenheimers'. More than 100 years later, the phrase became widely known through the famous play Wallensteins Tod by the top writer Friedrich Schiller. The proverb means something like I know who I am dealing or I know them inside out. Nowadays, the saying often has a negative meaning attached to it. That they cannot be trusted.

Kennen Sie Ihre Pappenheimer?
Pappenheim ist eine ganz besondere Stadt in Bayern, Deutschland. So schrieb zum Beispiel der geniale Komponist (Papa) Haydn das absolute Meisterwerk „Pappenheimer Marsch“ über Pappenheims Rolle im Dreißigjährigen Krieg. Mittlerweile sind inoffizielle Remix-Versionen des beliebten Stücks im Umlauf, in denen harte Acid-Beats auch diverse Armeeeinheiten vor Militäreinsätzen aufpeitschen. Pappenheim ist auch die Adelsfamilie, die in dem schönen Schloss auf meinem Foto jahrhundertelang ihren Hauptwohnsitz hatte. Die imposante Burg thront hoch über der historischen Stadt und ist ein echtes Wahrzeichen. Es ist toll, das aus der Ferne zu beobachten. Die Festung hat eine reiche Geschichte blutiger Schlachten, in denen geopolitische Interessen eine große Rolle gespielt haben. Um auf den schrecklichen 30-jährigen Krieg zurückzukommen, ist es interessant zu sagen, dass das berühmte deutsche und niederländische Sprichwort oder der Ausdruck „Ich kenne meine Pappenheimer“ aus dieser Zeit stammt. Dem deutschen General Baron Albrecht von Wallenstein wurde damals von Einheiten von Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim geholfen.Von Wallenstein wurde um 1632 des Hochverrats verdächtigt.Mehrere Regimenter hatten ihn inzwischen verlassen, aber die Pappenheimer blieben ihnen treu, und dann sagte er: „Ich kenne meine Pappenheimer“. Mehr als 100 Jahre später wurde der Satz durch das berühmte Theaterstück „Wallensteins Tod“ des Spitzenschriftstellers Friedrich Schiller weithin bekannt. Das Sprichwort bedeutet so viel wie Ich weiß, mit wem ich es zu tun habe oder Ich kenne meine Leute.Heutzutage hat der Spruch oft eine negative Bedeutung.Dass man ihnen nicht trauen kann. Kennen Sie Ihre Pappenheimer?

Kent u uw Pappenheimers?
Pappenheim is een hele bijzondere stad in het Duitse Beieren. Zo schreef de geniale componist (papa)Haydn het absolute meesterwerk 'Pappenheimer Marsch' over de rol van Pappenheim in de dertigjarige oorlog. Er zijn inmiddels onofficiële remix versies van het populaire stuk in omloop waarbij ook in onze huidige tijd harde acid beats verschillende legereenheden voorafgaand opzwepen bij militaire operaties. Pappenheim is ook de adellijke familie die eeuwenlang hun hoofdresidentie hebben gehad in de prachtige burcht op mijn foto. De indrukwekkende burcht torent hoog boven het historische plaatsje uit en is een echt herkenningspunt. Het is geweldig om dit van een afstand te aanschouwen. De burcht heeft een rijke geschiedenis van bloederige veldslagen waarbij geopolitieke belangen een grote rol hebben gespeeld. Om terug te komen op de verschrikkelijke 30 jarige oorlog is het wel interessant om te vertellen dat het beroemde Duitse en Nederlandse gezegde of uitdrukking 'Ik ken mijn Pappenheimers' stamt uit die tijd. De Duitse veldheer Baron Albrecht von Wallenstein werd in die tijd geholpen door eenheden van Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim. Von Wallenstein werd rond 1632 verdacht van landverraad. Verschillende regimenten hadden hem toen in de steek gelaten, maar de Pappenheimers bleven hen trouw en toen heeft hij daarna gezegd 'ik ken mijn Pappenheimers'. Meer dan 100 jaren later werd de uitdrukking algemeen bekend door het beroemde toneelstuk Wallensteins Tod van de topschrijver Friedrich Schiller. Het spreekwoord betekent zoiets als ik weet met wie ik te doen heb of ik ken mijn mensen. Tegenwoordig wordt er trouwens bij het gezegde veelal een negatieve betekenis aan gekoppeld. Dat ze juist niet te vertrouwen zijn. Kent u uw Pappenheimers?
we've had this plant for many years and it continues to bloom... for the summer it lives in a plastic half barrel and soon it will be put to the bottom of the big pond for the winter.

I look out of this window and I think this is a cosmos,
this is a huge creation, this is one small corner of it.
The trees and birds and everything else and I'm part of it.
I didn't ask to be put here, I've been lucky in
finding myself here.

Partly storm damage, but maybe some fences and gates have been removed to allow large fallen trees to be dragged, cut and disposed of ... there's so much rescue and repair work still to do! 😊
This was shot with the oldest Lensbaby optic I have - the Composer Pro 'double glass' optic, with the F-stops set by inserting disks into the optic itself!

The Composers Quarter Hamburg is a gathering of six museums in the Peterstraße in Hamburg-Neustadt, Germany. The associated museums have one or two classical composers as a theme who were born or have lived in the city of Hamburg (G.P. Telemann, C.P. Emanuel Bach, J.A. Hasse, Fanny and Felix Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms and Gustav Mahler) The museums are located in restored historical buildings.
-----------------------
"People usually complain that music is so ambiguous, and what they are supposed to think when they hear it is so unclear, while words are understood by everyone. But for me it is exactly the opposite...what the music I love expresses to me are thoughts not to indefinite for words, but rather too definite."
--Felix Mendelssohn--

The busts of major composers adorn the walls of this salon in the Austrian State Opera House (Staatsoper) in Vienna.
The Austrian State Opera (Staatsoper) is a massive operation that employs over a thousand administrators, workers and performers. During the annual season from early September until mid June, that season's shows are performed on a rotating basis requiring a complete set change everyday since there is a show almost every night. In fact there are often two set changes in a day due to the need for dress rehearsals.

I wore a scarf often when I worked with a blouse or a pullover sweater (for my UK friends a jumper LOL). I went in my closet to find some tule I had to wrap around my lens and noticed the scarves all hanging there begging me to photograph them so I did. I even shot through one of the of the silky see through ones I had hanging. I kind of like how this turned out.
As I am trying to rest my eyes I may just give you a fave rather than a comment. If you comment on my photo I may not get back with an answer right away. But rest assured, I appreciate each and every visit, comment and fave here on my little corner of the world as seen through my lens.
