At the Muley Point scenic overlook of Glen Canyon in Utah, US, Dan Chaney (Member 63,013) saw a Cumulonimbus capillatus incus formation that seemed determined to do as much as possible to steal Dan’s attention from the landscape. As well as making itself as wide as the canyon itself, this cloud attempted to dazzle Dan with a variety of supplementary features, such as delicate streaks of precipitation trailing from its base and bumpy patches of mamma on the underside of its spreading top. And, as if all of this wasn’t enough, it also got some of its raindrops to reflect and refract the sunlight into a rainbow. You win, cloud. Our eyes are on you and not the canyon.
