Skywatch Friday - Flaming June UK
This was taken last evening in that in-between time before sunset. It had been a warm, sunny, very breezy day. I believe these are called altocumulus undulatus 
This was taken a few moments ago. It's a warm day again, though not sunny - yet - and the sky is layered with banks of clouds - altostratus?
(I have been referring to 'Clouds' by Eric M. Wilcox; he is an atmospheric scientist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center)

A study in clouds! Neat photos.
Intersting shots, happy skywatch!
Thanks for educating me on the different types of clouds. Thanks, too, for the good Skywatch post and for visiting my site.
These are very interesting. I'm impressed you know the names of the formations.
I really got lost in these two photos. . .nicely done. And I enjoyed my visit :O)
My best to Frodo too.
I had to look up the names from the book I referred to - and I expect I'll have to look them up again next time!! Tee hee . . .
Thanks Noni - Frodo's getting better but still wheezing and gurgling.
Lovely soft and subtle cloud textures!
Thanks for doing justice to grey clouds; I love the unspectacular but highly interesting formations clouds make, and I'm glad to see somebody else who's not entirely governed by sunsets!
Your photos are like works of art. Thank you for shring and for stopping by my blog.
Have a great weekend.

I hope we do get a bit more of the flaming bit my way. Very ethereal dreamy images. Just floating away.
I have no idea what the names are. I'm impressed you seem to. It seems overcast in most of the US lately.
Lovely shots, those.
Great clouds!!!! I don't know the names of all the types of clouds, but I sure do like looking at them.

Very moody clouds. We've had a longish stretch of sun here (unusual for Victoria in June). Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I don't know the name of the clouds, but they are beautiful !
Interesting cloud info and photographs. I love learning new things ... thanks for sharing!
