Strange clouds...


That's a great photograph but I'm perplexed. I would have thought there would be snow in Iceland by November. \:]
 
that looks PS'ed to me
the ufo clouds cast no shadow. the house clearly has a shadow on the back of it so the sun would be on the right of the photo casting a shadow down on the house or at least in that general direction.
the snowball clouds i just dont believe.
 
The clouds are real, ooptea. However, feel free to try to paint them if you like. :D


The middle one has some heavy Mammatus. Usually a sign of severe weather. The top one is of lenticular clouds.

Love the lower pictures. Very spectacular.
 
Moth! Mamatus...that's the term I was trying to remember. Yep those clouds are a real picture all right. They happen to be a dramatically perfect example of the variety but lots of pics are available if you use Google images.

Speaking of lenticular clouds, here's a site which specializes in them. The first one is spectacular...

I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love

(Still in a gluonistic Beltane mood)

great links.
I downloaded these clouds.
Now I can choose on which one I will build my castle.

Hoo hah...he said 'gluonistic.' 8D
 
Indeed. Remember polaron positivity? (something like ghosts: creating an effect whilst not located from where the effect emanates.)

My name is FrOnkOnsteen, not Frankenstein!
 
I don't remember polaron positively. But did you know what a polaron is for real? From solid state physics, the polaron is...

"The object that results when an electron in the conduction band of a crystalline insulator or semiconductor polarizes or otherwise deforms the lattice in its vicinity. The polaron comprises the electron plus its surrounding lattice deformation. (Polarons can also be formed from holes in the valence band.) If the deformation extends over many lattice sites, the polaron is "large," and the lattice can be treated as a continuum. Charge carriers inducing strongly localized lattice distortions form "small" polarons."

Heh heh...he said polaron! :bustagut:

I do remember FrOnkOnsteen, Mr. Wilder. ;)
 
This is a different content shipping under the same flag. I was told/read that a polaron was any polarizing "particle", meaning it could be an electron or a proton.

Polaron positivity was, from that point of view, the effect that there was, as a reaction to where an electron had been, a positive charge. Which was seen as bizarre as it was a time-sensitive local change in a field.
Scientists still thinking in particles (there must be something!) had problems with this.
Hence probably your explanation.

Other subject: one of my all-time favourite sites, unfortunately not updated because of low traffic I guess, is
