This is happening today in our neck of the woods. Lenticular clouds are my favorite cloud forms; this is the time of year when they occur more frequently. Check out this link for more info on these types of clouds.

And the snow over the last weekend turned Taos and northern New Mexico into a winter wonderland.

  1. And of course the name “lenticular” derives from “lentil,” describing their shape. We get the word “lens” also from that source. Good for every photographer to know!

    Nice work as always, Geraint. Sending our best from snowy Vancouver.

    • Thanks for the edification. I didn’t know those facts but it makes sense. Best wishes from a balmy week in northern New Mexico to you. Thanks Rob. G
