Description
It's been a while since 4th grade science class, but I believe the high layer here is Cirrocumulus and the lower layer are Cumulus clouds. Any atmospheric experts may feel free to chime in on my guess work. The one cloud instantly reminded me of the Horsehead Nebula in Orion. Also liked the fins of Iron Oxide, had never seen such before. Worthy of a zoom!
Don't let those freedoms go to ones head this holiday...wishing all a safe weekend!

Love this Dana! Think you've got a good fix on the clouds but I too have never seen iron oxide "fins" such as these before. Am reading a fascinating book that combines history and geology by the title of, 'Hard Road West'...it is giving me a great understanding of all the landforms west of the Missouri River.
