6. Awesome, Awesome, Awesome Pictures! Thanks!
I've always been fascinated with lenticular clouds. I remember being about 5 or 6 years old reading some book on fascinating science type stuff. This was one of the things in there and I vividly remember the pictures in that book to this day. They mentioned they were mistaken as UFO's frequently as well. Nature's just amazingly beautiful, ain't it?

That side was all sorts of full of incredible pictures. I appreciate you posting the link.

8. A poem I wrote many years ago about clouds
CLOUDS

Such silly, wispy,
dreamy things
we see through
sleepy eyes,
while lying in
the grassy park
on warm and
lazy days!

Daydreaming
funny shapes
within the
quiet forms
above--
Such fluffy puffs,
such creamy toys!
Sweet cotton-candy
dreams.

Reach up and try,
you sleepy-head,
to catch your
private clouds--
Imaginings all
rolling past,
especially
for you!

12. Those are altocumulus standing lenticulars....
Very common under stable weather conditions with high winds. The overall phenomenom is called mountain wave.
