nubbsgalore: as mentioned in this earlier post, lenticular...
as mentioned in this earlier post, lenticular clouds are typically formed near mountains, as air, which flows over and down the their sides, will overshoot and spring back up (much like how a car will continue to bounce a bit after going over a speed bump). the air oscillates like this for a while, with clouds forming on the upward part of the wave as the moist rising air cools.
lenticular clouds are a bundle of movement, yet look stationary, as the flow of air up one side of the mountain replenishes the cloud on the windward side, while the dry air flowing down the other side dries the cloud out on the leeward side. these clouds can appear to hover for hours or even days until weather conditions change, and are even occasionally confused for ufos.

Jonk Photography
From Paris, I travel all over Europe looking for abandoned places but also all over the world to broaden my mind. Politic here is not to retouch pictures, at least almost not. Yes, it makes less impressive pictures, but yes it makes them stay much more natural and this is what I like.

"Not everyone was happy with [Captain America]. This may surprise some people, but before America..."
“Not everyone was happy with [Captain America]. This may surprise some people, but before America entered World War II there was actually a strong pro-Nazi sentiment in the United States. So much so that Simon and Kirby [Cap’s creators] received death threats and mail disparaging them in their creation, not helped by the fact that the two were also Jewish.
In fact, a pro-Nazi group called ‘The German-American Bund’ once marched in front of Timely’s offices [one of Marvel Comics predecessors]. The two called in the police for protection, and they sure as hell got it!
As it turned out, then mayor of New York, Fiorello LaGuardia, was a fan of Captain America and actually called them up to tell them “You boys over there are doin’ a good job. The city of New York will see that no harm will come to you.””

Linkara’s introduction to his review of Captain America Comics #1 (via kradeiz)
Never let it be swept under the rug. There was a lot of pressure for America to either stay neutral, or even to go in on the side of the Nazi’s, before Pearl Harbor (and after, to only declare war on Japan). Celebrities like Charles Lindbergh were pro Nazi, and not shy about their opinions.

Captain America was created by two Jews during World War II and you’re telling me he’d be a conservative.
