Yes very typical cambers Michael. Love them.
Here is just a patch of asperitas in al ower layer of clouds and..
And somewhat later already dissipating
I agree Michael, too much contrast might spoil details. It is a matter of fine tuning.
I am getting spoiled over here. After my former asperitas event even two times yesterday. Too much to share at once. The second appearance of asperias made me think of he rather lenticular situation I posted above. To test the statement by Michael about hardly recognizing asperitas overhead versus asperitas seen at a lower angle, I made these two shots (among others).
Overhead
Nice knowing about the layers Michael. I checked my series of yesterday. Here is a overview of patches of asperitas on a lower layer and somewhat higher there seems to be a stratus layer.
Oh and yes, I agree asperitas is better recognized looking form an angle than overhead. Overhead they don´t betray their forms so easy while looking at an angle the shapes and shadows give them their special appearance.
That wand should not be left unguarded Keelin! A thief will be able to disappear very easy in the mist of Arizona B&W#142.
Morphing Mist
And this strange cloud structure heralded the arrival of the asperitas. I like to share it for its strangeness. I also saw some suspect asperitas-features in this strange cloud. That might have been wishful thinking but what followed was asperitas indeed.
Hello Ramona, that is some time ago? Nice to read something from you again.
For the first picture I agree with your thought that t is a matter of shadowing like explained in the Cloud a Day.
The second one seems to be lenticular cirrocumulus to me. Anyone correct me when I am wrong?

Here a detail I like in a part of the sky where the asperitas was already more or less vanishing. Just some features of asperitas are left over.
Michael: unfortunately no wider view of my suspect. Indeed a lot lenticular. What makes it a bit asperitas-like for me are the irregular waves so typical for asperitas. I conclude: coincidence in a lenticular undulating scenery. It just lasted less than half an hour I remember.
Keelin: that is a fantastic picture over Francisco Bay! The day it got published I complemented you with it on the gallery. I also saw your picture not so long ago in one of the Somewhat Occasional Newsletters from CAS. It is a surprise you took from this the mermaids tresses. Wonderful.
Just today we had an asperitas event in the midst of some weather changes. No doubt about this one imho. I have a series in which one can see loose patches of asperitas and also phases of dissipating.
