Thanks Ruth. It must be the larger version of ‘I Know You’re There’ by Keelin on the gallery. It is a pity it does not have it’s funny title there. Love it. As your tasty Spumoni, Ruth.
Do you know sundogs also come in breeds?
Dachshund
Christopher I just want to add something to this little discussion. Yes it is certainly the variety radiatus as Michael replied, but varieties are not mutually exclusive for a genus. Possible species are mutually exclusive but possible varieties are not. I guess we see Stratocumulus and so the complete classification will be Stratocumulus undulatus radiatus. A mouthful of Latin.
The most important thing is that it is a very nice spotting.
I see you posted your question already some time ago. My answer would be that there is not a post-processing solution fro clouds. I use Lightroom and can do anything I want. Photoshop will do too.
I hope you will find your way Christopher.

Bubbly all over above, but in Slàinte! i see the head of an alerted snake ready to attack, Keelin. Maybe the result of having had too much bubbly drinks?
The opposite of bubbles
Arizona sunset #111 is really painterly, Michael. A true brush painting. Great peachy colors, Ruth. Very tasty.
Mainly Blues
So much fun above! A great sundog in the tail of a contrail, Tony. Ariel’s Pastel Pod might be a neon lighted tropical fish. Ruth you hunted with success for a full moon with corona. Keelin, aren’t we all halo fans? A great composition.
Another SundogI just want to add something to former comments. Michael is right there is duplicatus involved, but that’s just the variety we see and not the genus. It is not cirrocumulus we see here, but it is more likely to be altocumulus undulatus. The different undulatus patterns betray the duplicatus variety Michael already mentioned. A really nice one to spot, Vivid.

In my opinion they are the real deal Vivid. They are nice examples of KH in cumulus clouds. It must have been fun spotting them!

The colors and composition in #109 are fabulous Michael. Love it. And #110 as well.
Oranges And Reds
The veils make the composition perfect in #237, Michael.
Ruth your great distrail looks like footsteps in the snow.
My! My! What Have We Here? is hilarious, Keelin. And how could I miss Billy on the 8th of October? He is obviously having fun in the mountains of Tibet.

Ariel, you spotted a beautiful combination of halos. Keelin your iridescence at the edge of a developing cumulus is fantastic.
And Tony, I don’t think you spotted nacreous. It is simply not the right season to spot nacreous. We are in between the summer where nocticlucent clouds can occur and the winter when nacreous is possible to show up on the Northern hemisphere. Nacreous is only visible in the winter between sunset or sunrise and one or two hours after sunset / before sunrise. Here is some more info about Nacreous clouds including a link to a page with a comparison between iridescence and nacreous clouds. You can read it is possible to spot it (although rarely in the South of England too. I hope you like it.Some more iridescence in close-up from the archive.
