Hi Rainer,

I like those clouds, unusual shape. Did you find any high noctilucent clouds yet ? I am fascinated by them ! They look spectacular in all the pictures I have seen.

Hi Magnus,

Many years ago I think I saw some Noctilucent clouds when I was still living in Mexico City.

Hi,

If you look closely on the wide angle image you can see some Lenticular just behind the tall chimney.

I had made closer image of some Lenticular but as dumb as I am because I wanted to clean up the SD card I also deleted the newest ones and after I noticed it the nice ones were already gone.
