<p style=”text-align: left;”>Beautiful image. I particularly like how the clouds mimic the tree silhouette on the far left (a willow?).</p>
My first reaction is that the clouds are virga. Yet, it could be shadows are playing with me and they are cirrus at a different altitude with cross winds. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I look forward to what the experts say!

Hi Hans,

My brother, Chip Stone, was skiing with his friend John.  John took this picture and my brother took the image seen in the Gallery.  And I mixed up the actual town the ski area is in (Sugarbush has a Warren address, though one drives through Waitsfield to get there).

Thank you for your thoughts, the event left them both in awe and left me envious! Wish I had been out to witness such a galaxy of arcs and halos. I have very little experience with these sort of formations and made a best guess based on a bit of research.  Thank you for your feedback.

Best, Ann
