Iridescent clouds? Lenticular?

I love finding colors in the sky! As I was watching these clouds move past the sun and go through their delightful array of colors, they began to look lenticular-ish. I am not enough of an expert to know if they were sharp enough to fall into that classification or not, though? It was a VERY windy day in Oklahoma. I underexpose my sky color photos so the colors will be more apparent – this was taken during the middle of the day, with a very high shutter speed. Is the small cloud in the middle a lenticular?
Thanks!

Great iridescence and you captured it well in my opinion, Ramona.
The lenticular shape is there indeed. It might be a borderline case but I’d give it the benefit of the doubt and say yes to lenticularis. One of the nice things about clouds is that they not always behave and look like we think they have to. You just have to check all the examples of iridescent lenticularis on the gallery and find some that are not as lenticular as you expected.
