Cirrus clouds
Cirrus clouds. Cirrus clouds are elongated tufted clouds, also known as mares tails, that are found at altitudes over 5000 metres. They consist of tiny ice crystals, which are blown by the wind into their characteristically wispy shapes. A large concentration of cirrus clouds may indicate an approaching weather front, and that the weather is likely to change within 24 hours of these clouds forming

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the ethereal beauty of cirrus clouds, also known as mares tails. Stretching across the vast expanse of a rural countryside, these elongated tufted clouds create a mesmerizing display against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. Formed at altitudes over 5000 meters, cirrus clouds consist of delicate ice crystals that are delicately shaped by the wind into their wispy and intricate forms. Their presence in large concentrations often serves as nature's signal for an approaching weather front, indicating that atmospheric conditions are likely to change within the next 24 hours. The photograph perfectly captures the serene atmosphere and geographical features of this idyllic landscape. With rolling hills and lush green grass below, it provides a stunning contrast to the softness and elegance portrayed by these high-altitude cloud formations. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at nature's ability to create such breathtaking scenes. The interplay between light and shadow on these celestial bodies adds depth and texture to an already picturesque setting. Science Photo Library has once again captured our imagination with this remarkable print, reminding us of both Earth's natural wonders and its ever-changing climate patterns.
