One thought on “A display of iridescence over La Turbie, France.”

    Interesting picture, Francois!

    The sun is definitely shining and reflecting on the ice-crystals that make up this particular high cloud formation (cirrocumulus) and is creating tiny, iridescent rainbows in the sky.

    Also looks like a number of cars have travelled across the high, cirrocumulus clouds in the sky and have created tyre tracks in the white sand.

Altocumulus lenticularis duplicatus, also known as 'pile d'assiettes', forms when stable, moist air flows over a large obstacle such as a mountain, creating waves that cause the clouds to form at the crests. In this classic example, there are multiple, stacked layers of these lens-shaped clouds, spotted over Torres Del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile.
