They are altocumulus stratiformus undulatus or Wave Clouds. They form when parts of moving air condense at the elevation of the dew point temperature. Love those clouds Gen! We sometimes get them here in DC (not as well defined as yours) when we get the right weather conditions coming from west to east, over the Appalachian Mountains. Probably see them a few times a year. Your shot is the best example I have seen of them! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I also got some tin hats replies. 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca Ore Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 One is Gina/Jorge/Luis that I couldn't upload until I could ask his permission about it. His daughter's fifth birthday was today and she wants a fish tank. I have a spare one but not with equipment, but Dad made $120 US this week so maybe. I even have a good heater for the tank so they could keep something more colorful than the local mollies. And this was an experiment with a 12 inch beauty dish with a diffuser over the tank.

Each ceramic sculpture is hand crafted in the shape of a bull, adorned with intricate hand-painted patterns and vibrant flowers, each carrying its own symbolic meaning The figures are seen in Peru as a symbol of protection.

zxzoomy Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Protesters who support the Move Forward Party in Bangkok, Thailand, hold up placards with a pro democracy message, including one with a 'respect my vote' message. The protesters support Pita Limjaroenrat of the Move Forward Party, which won the most votes in the recent general election. Pita Limjaroenrat lost the vote to become prime minister, 51 votes short of the 376 votes needed. The vote saw many abstentions by some members of the Senate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
