iridescent clouds

Its a cold day today. I'm on the wrong side of the country for snow, which is all being dumped on the east coast at the moment.

But today, cycling in, something caught my eye. Colours in the clouds. Purple and green, gold and electric blue. Wow. No I wasn't tripping. This was iridescent clouds.

I dragged Ian out of his workshop to show him. You really need to block the sun behind a building and wear shades to get the full effect, otherwise its too bright. I showed a few other friends this too.

As a member of the Cloud Appreciation Society I'm always looking out for interesting things in the sky.
