21 Most Amazing, lenticular clouds on earth

April 7, 2013 by Great Atmosphere 2 Comments

They look like giant flying saucers on top of mountains, but clouds are stationary lens-shaped. The lenticular clouds formed aligning perpendicularly to the direction of the wind at height. This occurs when stable moist air passes over the mountain or mountain range, creating a series of standing waves. Then if the temperature at the top of the waves fall near or below the dew point temperature, the air humidity condenses and thus produce the lenticular clouds, which disappear when the air moves back into the wave. It is not difficult to confuse somebody with … UFO and put legs! But in a second time will be left to enjoy the stunning scenery in the sky!

Beautiful Cherry Blossoms, Around the World

Beautiful Cherry Blossoms, Around the World

One of the best known symbols of spring in Japan are the magnificent pink Japanese cherry trees, also called sakura. Starting in mid-March, the Internet is flooded with amazing pictures of all varieties of pink, blooming in parks and streets of different cities of Japan. The earliest city to blossom is Tokyo – this year its sakura trees are expected to be in full bloom by the end of March. Depending on a city, Japanese cherry trees may bloom even through May.

As the official Japanese school year starts in April, the first day back at school or work after the holidays usually coincides with the blooming of the sakuras. You will always see many locals picnicking under the cherries every season – the tradition is called hanami, and dates back to the 8th century!

Because the cherries blossom in bunches of flowers, they are symbolically associated with clouds, and stand for ephemeral nature of life in Japanese culture, that’s highly influenced by Buddhism. Sakura’s are often featured in Japanese art, movies, anime and manga. Curiously, the delicate cherry trees were once even used as part of the propaganda, in order to inspire the “Japanese spirit” before the wake of the World War II.

Even though sakura is the unofficial national flower of Japan, today they have spread to many other countries as well, mostly due to the Japanese diaspora. The blooming of the sakuras is definitely one of the most beautiful sights every spring, wherever you find them!

The human towers ”castells” in Catalonia, Spain

April 5, 2013 by Great Atmosphere 5 Comments

8 beautiful images..

The human towers (“castells” in Catalan) are built traditionally in festivities and competitions in Catalonia, Spain. At these events each team (“colla”) builds and dismantles several human towers, this festival counts more than 200 years in the country . For their success, a crowded and stunning base of dozens of people needs to be previously perfectly set up.

The youngest and the weakest are the top of the tower, while the heavier members compose the base. Each tower consists of two or three levels, while the audience jostling and pushes forward, helping in this way the creation of a stable human tower.

Hundreds of men, women and children are divided into groups of 100-500 people and compete to create the tallest human towers. The youngest and the weakest are the top of the tower, while the heavier members compose the base.

More than 20000 people gather each year to catch a glimpse of the competition. The higher the tower of a team, the more are the points. The strategy is to put young members at the top and heavy aged people at base.
