Interesting picture, Lynnee!
Spectacular picture of a number of spaceship or leaf-shaped lenticular clouds rising into the fine, sunny mid-spring April sky over the spectacular high mountains and rocky, tundra slopes of the Norwegian Arctic Lofoten Islands. Don’t often see many pictures from this part of the world and seeing so many lenticular clouds in the sky together!
