I am joining another challenge today – the Sky Sunday challenge.
This is a photo I took a few years ago, but I’d love to share it now. Have you ever seen clouds like that? It looks quite interesting, almost like a spaceship.
These lens-shaped clouds are called lenticular clouds. They normally develop on the downwind side of a mountain or mountain range. They indicate instability in that layer of the atmosphere
Nature is an amazing artist and sky is one of its favourite canvas. Sometimes you just need to look up to see beauty.

Certainly is an amazing cloud, saw similar clouds in the waiparapa region but not quite the same as this one.
Nature creates amazing and unique things.
Fantastic shot. I have never seen such a cloud. It looks like a UFO.
Thank you so much! It really does!
I have never seen such a cloud before, dear Ellie … it is something special .. it offers us nature, we just have to know it
That’s true, it’s a very interesting view!
It looks like a UFO, dear friend
It’s awesome indeed, I was lucky to see it a few times.
I hope you can see them in person one day!
Ahhh, I love that one! Yes we do have them quite often sitting under a mountain here as well. Wonderful image.
Thank you so much! Clouds are always so beautiful and diverse.
From the looks of this shot, it almost looks like this lenticular is a hole punch cloud. So amazingly awesome.
It’s amazing what things nature creates indeed!
Wow !! did you take that picture? I have never seen anything like that. Are you sure it is just clouds there? Looks like a UFO being hidden by fake clouds. 😀 Amazing.
Thank you so much! Yes, I took it. I have seen such clouds at least 3 times, but this one is the most perfectly shaped one. Crazy stuff.
Wow and wow again. Did it look like it would burst any time?
Unfortunately, overtime wind breaks that shape.
beautiful amazing . never seen before
Thank you so much! I have seen them a few times.
cloud or alien spacecraft pretending to be a cloud? 🙂
great share!
Maybe it’s a great cover for a spaceship, because it’s too obvious, haha.
hide things in plain sight!
Haha, exactly! I wonder what they are plotting.
The Alien Dessert truck – 🙂 Desserts you will swear are not of this world!
I did have one that people said looked like alien eggs. 😀
that would be really cool to share!
I had some problems with the glaze. I shared them anyway, haha https://www.myhealthydessert.com/recipes/vegan/vegan-carrot-cake-truffles/

Looks like a spaceship. Very cool cloud shape.
Yes, I was lucky enough to see it a few times.
What the interesting shape of clouds.
Yes, it’s amazing, especially the first time.
I like to shoot clouds, but I have not seen this phenomenon!
I was lucky to see it a few times, it’s very cool.
It looks like an UFO!?
I saw another one last week, but I only had my phone with me to take a photo. Maybe they are looking for me, haha.
