These particularly caught my eye because the large ovals in the foreground shimmered with green and magenta iridescence. It would have been wonderful if my camera phone could have captured the subtle radiance…
And look at how the three in front of the sun align with the three to the north!
Taken around 7pm on 84, the east end of Pagosa Springs. May 20, 2013.
I increased the exposure about 25% and the saturation about 30%. iPhone 4.

If you zoom in on the colored area you can get a much better picture of the color. There are a bunch of similar pictures here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3763103728480.128732.1603211101&type=3
Thank you, Kelly! Yes, especially some of those first ones are very similar to what I see sometimes. So beautiful, magnificent…
I film or take pictures of the Sun when high in the sky, Leslee, with my mobile, and get beams of light, circles of light, and half spheres of violet colour with a dot of light in the middle, moving up, and some people say it’s a reflection, but I wonder…. christine

Nice pic Leslee. I wonder what that little light is just above the top cloud? LOL! 7:00 p.m. is to early for stars to be out this time of year. Thanks for sharing it.
Hi, Paul, thanks for commenting! Yes, I notice that little guy, and he appears in several of the other pics. (I took about a hundred pics in the following hour once I saw these) I hope to put the stills together into a video….
In some of the other photos, the lens artifacts are very clear and crisp. This fellow, well, I really dunno… I’ll share more soon. :)
Hmm, gets my imagination going…

I have always believed these clouds are really ships that have not fully materialized. Love!!
Yep visitors, the like pretending they are clouds :-)
