"Alter Peter" (Old Peter) is the popular name for the steeple of the St. Peter church.
Photo taken from the Rindermarkt.
St. Peter is the oldest documented church in downtown Munich, first mentioned in a document dated around 1225/26. It was expanded several times, went from Romanesque style through late Gothic style to its final appearance in late Baroque style.
The church was nearly completely destroyed during the allied bombing raid of February 25th 1945. The reconstruction after World War II was only completed in 2000 with the final reconstruction of the ceiling frescoes.

The Macro Mondays theme for today, 8/16, is paper art. This is what is known as an altered book. The artist has glued together the pages of an actual book and then carved out a space for valuables to be secreted away. In the photostream (and in the first comment box) is a picture of the entire secret space.
Am presently dithering amongst the three macro versions that are in the photostream . This one more clearly shows how the compartment was carved. I’ll choose one in a few minutes. Altered book3
It might be more fun to see modern architecture than a vagrant.

A tribute from nature for those who perished as well as those who had their lives forever altered on Sept. 11. In so many ways it seems like yesterday and prayers that there is never a tomorrow like that day again.

The big sailing boats are all on tour with tourists - the little one's remain for private guests and work as fisher boats.
Often I accompanied fishermen early in the morning and saw their fishing results.

Die großen Segelboote sind mit Touristen unterwegs.
Die kleinen dienen für Privatfahrten und als Fischerboote.
Oft begleitete ich Fischer früh am Morgen und begutachtete ihre Fangergebnisse.

Barbed wire, also known as barb wire, occasionally corrupted as bobbed wire or bob wire, is a type of steel fencing wire constructed with sharp edges or points arranged at intervals along the strands. It is used to construct inexpensive fences and is used atop walls surrounding secured property. It is also a major feature of the fortifications in trench warfare (as a wire obstacle).
Michael Kelly Invented the First Barbed Wire Fencing
The first wire fences (before the invention of the barb) consisted of only one strand of wire, which was constantly broken by the weight of cattle pressing against it.
Michael Kelly made a significant improvement to wire fencing, he twisted two wires together to form a cable for barbs - the first of its kind. Known as the "thorny fence," Michael Kelly's double-strand design made fences stronger, and the painful barbs made cattle keep their distance.
Joseph Glidden Was Considered the King of the Barb.
Joseph Glidden's design made barbed wire more effective, he invented a method for locking the barbs in place, and invented the machinery to mass-produce the wire.
Living patterns of the nomadic Native Americans were radically altered. Further squeezed from lands they had always used, they began calling barbed wire "the Devil's rope."
After its invention, barbed wire was widely used during wars, to protect people and property from unwanted intrusion. Military usage of barbed wire formally dates to 1888, when British military manuals first encouraged its use.
During the Spanish-American War, Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders chose to defend their camps with the help of barbed fencing. In turn-of-the-century South Africa, five-strand fences were linked to blockhouses sheltering British troops from the encroachment of Boer commandos. During World War I, barbed wire was used as a military weapon.
Even now, barbed wire is widely used to protect and safeguard military installation, to establish territorial boundaries, and for prisoner confinement.
I found this barbed wire along with the male Blue Dasher Dragonfly perched on it, at a Polk County park along Lake Kissimmee. Polk County, Florida.
