Iridescent clouds
IMG_6215_iridescentcloud_crop_adj.jpg

Description: Just some iridescent clouds in Texas. The pattern of the clouds changed very quickly as they formed and dispersed, and they shifted rapidly from iridescent to non-iridescent, so I wished I had had a tripod with me to try to film them.

This site has some nice information about iridescent clouds: http://www.atoptics.co.uk/droplets/irid1.htm .

It was difficult to capture with my camera, so I adjusted the image saturation slightly to approximate my perception of the colors.
