You would love living near me!

We get the same cloud formation everyday, same shape, color, size, and at the same time of day. Never moves with the winds, just hovers off to the distance for hours. We never see it when it arrives or when it leaves. My husband even noticed and is convinced we are being assimilated.

i once convinced myself and a friend after eating some shrooms the sky was a hologram !

Ha ha, that sounds familiar, where is that guy these days? I miss him.

Anyhow, your thread title put me in mind of this rainbow cloud. I was at Manchester Airport, having just driven over the Pennines through the heaviest rain I've ever encountered, only to find Manchester bathed in sunshine. Looking back towards the (completely obscured) Pennines from the airport it just looked incredible.

Getting ready for those objects you saw? Good luck. I spent three days returning to the place I saw something, it didn't return…

i was and saw nothing sadly other than stars and a few shooting stars

Yah, bummer. After a lifetime of looking up, I realized that my sighting of some thingy was a once in a lifetime event.

Shouldn't stop you from enjoying the night sky. Theres usually something awesome to see, let alone wonder about.

Wonder is a form of worship…

We see this sometimes, Mt. Rainier and lenticular clouds. At sunrise or sunset this happens.

this is freaking awesome!

My dad took this one in March. Little smoke ring shaped clouds at the top right of the photo. Taken in Oxford UK
I think they are called funicular clouds

They look like the reflections of inside lights on a window the photo is being taken through - looks like there's 4 of them - 2 are obvious and 2 not so continuing the line to the left.

My dad did send the pic off to the metro logical centre who replied they were clouds, but I see your point

a reply to: woodwardjnr

Yeah, they're lights reflecting on a window

And back on topic, I took this a few years ago, was an amazing sunrise

Never seen an inverted cloud rainbow before:
Crappy phone cam doesnt do the colours justice.

Circumzenithal arc. I love those!

I'll inform the UK metrological department said they were clouds, but I'll ask my dad, they gave him a name for them and why they form as they do. Maybe they were wrong.

a reply to: woodwardjnr

They certainly are wrong lol

No big deal

a reply to: woodwardjnr

I think the met office might just have been talking about the obvious clouds, and not the possible reflections.

It's all making sense, it was taken out of a window in a hospital and my dad was just taking a photo of the sunset he didn't notice the little circles (lights) until he blew the photo up on a larger screen

Lol, never mind
