Cumulus Humilis clouds
Cumulus clouds mostly form as a result of localized pockets of warm air rising.
Cumulus humilis is the smallest form of cumulus clouds and results from relatively weak convection (humilis means humble in Latin). This produces clouds that generally have flat bases and small, rounded tops. Technically, a cumulus cloud is considered to be a humilis formation if it is wider than it is tall, as estimated by an observer on the ground. The height of these type of clouds is about 500 tot 1000 meter or 2000 to 3500 feet. It's unusual that rain falls out of these type of clouds.

ein schönes Wolkenband über den Färöer
Hier seht ihr in der Ferne die Felsen Risin og Kellingin.
Sie sind zwei Felssäulen direkt vor der Nordküste der Insel Eysturoy auf den Färöern in der Nähe der Stadt Eiði .
Der Name Risin og Kellingin bedeutet „Der Riese und die Hexe “ und bezieht sich auf eine alte Legende über ihre Ursprünge. Der Riese (Risin) ist der 71 m hohe Felspfeiler weiter von der Küste entfernt, und die Hexe ( Kellingin ) ist der 68 m hohe, spitze Felspfeiler näher am Land.
