Chimneys and Cloud

Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 20 Jan 2014

A lenticular cloud has been formed by a standing wave in the air set up by strong wind over the mountains. I promise that this is exactly the colour captured by the camera, not altered in any way by photo editing. A really spectacular sunset!
