I have only had the opportunity to photograph Mammatus clouds in Pennsylvania on two occasions, one of them was yesterday afternoon (March 17, 2016). Unfortunately, the only camera I had available at the time was my trusty Apple iPhone 5S. I managed to capture the huge formation using the panorama mode of the camera. Tech Specs: Apple iPhone 5S, ISO 32, 1/2160 second, f/2.2, 4mm, panormama mode.
The Science: From what I have learned, the formation of these clouds is still not fully understood, there are several theories surrounding the formation. From Wikipedia - Mammatus, also known as mammatocumulus (meaning "mammary cloud"),is a meteorological term applied to a cellular pattern of pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud. The name mammatus is derived from the Latin mamma (meaning "udder" or "breast").
Polar stratospheric clouds are clouds in the winter polar stratosphere at altitudes of 15,000–25,000 m. They form at very low temperatures, below −78 °C. These temperatures can occur in the lower stratosphere in polar winter.
a strange mix in the sky ~ sorry folks for beeing not so often around ~ my summer Trip with my son to Sweden starts soon💛💜 hopefully catching romantic sunsets there!!
When I saw this explosion of clouds and standing in the wildness just to enjoy this view and forgotten to click my camera. Luckily, I did manage to get a picture of this beautiful image which mother nature gifted to us.

Viera wetlands, Florida
A couple of other butterflies that were found in the Viera wetlands are shown in comments.
Summer 2017 wasn't the best time to visit Western Canada who was suffering its worst fire season in recent history.
As a result, we often couldn't see past the smoke covering the area limiting the chances of enjoying the landscapes like we intented.
But, nevertheless, even if we couldn't see much, everything that was still visible could earn a badge of photographic merit.
Like this lake which name I don't even know since traveling through British Columbia gets you to see about fifty of those on a daily basis.
Off to the beach we go Series #1 of 5
These photos were taking 2 years ago today.
I love adding them because it's so nice to go back and see what we were doing that day....
Thank you so much for your comments and visits.
Have a Fantasic day!
This cloud settles in the valley overnight. Then during the morning it slowly rises.
You would think you can walk on it !!
Lenticular clouds, altocumulous lenticularis, formed in high winds, where laminar flows of air rise over a mountain and the drop in temperature causes water vapor to condense in layered clouds. These clouds are fairly common in the Eastern Sierra, often forming into long, linear "Sierra wave" formations parallel to and a few miles east of the Sierra Nevada.
I saw these clouds forming from my porch, so I headed down to the Lake to capture them evolving in a time-lapse sequence.
