A concrete bunker, part of the Molotov Line — a system of fortifications built by the Soviet Union along its new western border in 1940–1941. Overgrown with moss and hidden in the forest, the structure still shows its firing embrasures and entrance.

[the 95% reduction in rain is ugly of course, but glad they are surveying as it were]
“Lost [sic] archaeological sites have emerged in grasslands across Wales after a prolonged spell of hot and dry weather.
Wales has seen about 5% of the average rainfall for July, after a series of back-to-back heatwaves and a drier than usual April to June. A drought has also been triggered in parts of Wales.
Experts said these dry conditions have brought to light a range of hidden archaeological remains, including Roman buildings and practice trenches from World War One.
Many are only visible from the air as distinctive marks in crops and grass, with some not being seen for "two or three decades", according to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW).
The crop marks are made by vegetation drawing on better nutrients and water supplies trapped in long-gone fortification ditches - leading to green growth that stands out…”

@FotoVorschlag Tunnel und Unterführungen / Tunnels and underpasses
This is the entrance gate and tunnel under the defensive wall at fort Eketorp on Öland in Sweden. The wall is a reconstruction. The person in the schmedieval solder-ish clothing and armour is me. Photo from 2019.

Found a 2025 video where civilian contractors exercise the construction of the newest shelter types; tells a bit about their R&D too. FDF and Finnish civilian companies have been developing #fortification technology & prefabricated element construction since the 1960s. youtu.be/Frj-JwqyVzg?...

Voyage aller, pour quelques jours chez mon cycliste corseté et sans vélo.
Il marche, il dénivelle.
À une dizaine de kilomètres de chez lui, il m'avait donné rdv au bout d'un de mes lacs préférés 🤩 !
Pour redescendre dans sa vallée, première fois qu'il remontait en voiture assis depuis son accident (délai médical respecté). Ça va. 👍🏻 -
