Heavy lenticular clouds over Kumaon hills.

Shot from Kausani. Lucky weather was clear so the mountainside details shone through the light mist. Mrigthuni peak wrapped in cloud.At the extreme rt side glimpse of Nandadevi west.Uplifts to the lenticular cloudmass may be seen over a point between Mrigthunipeak and Devtoli peak and a large updrift over Nandadevi west. Lenticular cloud are basically rotary wind disturbance with precipitation and occur when air movements over earth surface catch high obstructions like mountains over 6000 mtrs( 19500ft).
