Please note it is Stratus.
Dancing of course! and the nucleation point danced left and right and appeared to be at a constant low altitude of some 150 feet.
Having thought more about this “mushroom cloud” stratus lenticularis Izzard, what was amazing was the nucleation point which can be clearly seen directly above the fourth tree from the left which was danging about in the easterly wind.
The cloud was formed as a result of moist air being deflected around the Rock of Gibraltar, the precipitation point which was dancing about can be clearly seen at the base of the cloud, weird stuff for Stratus lenticularis Izzard.
As the cloud was only 1000ft up I call it Status lenticularis Izzard.
This almost looks like one of those giant moons you see in the hazy distance, on the cover of a Science Fiction novel. Intriguing!
Thanks Martin.
Unlike any cloud I've ever seen, nice shot, Martin.
