Head In The Clouds

I was up at 6.30 am yesterday. Opened shutters, put kettle on for

the first cuppa of the morning & then dashed outside with 

my camera to take shots of the early morning clouds

as the sun rose behind Leila's Mountain.

Not a spectacular start to the day by any means -

maybe I'd missed the best part of the dawn.

Back out again 20 minutes later, after having drunk my 

cup of black tea, and the light has changed from

that golden glow to a whiter shade. 

Still nothing special, but the blue skies beyond

seemed to promise a fine day lay in store.

Then, half an hour later when I stepped outside, I

spotted some clouds I'd only ever seen on

the internet before.

So I zoomed in for a closer shot....

I was pretty sure that these were lenticular clouds, 

but I'm no expert, so I posted the pic on

The Cloud Appreciation Society's FB page.

And they are.
