Clouds can be so artistic!
I posted these under the

Nacreous clouds are located in the stratosphere some 9 to 16 miles high. Their iridescent"mother of pearl" colors come from sunlight striking tiny ice crystals inside the clouds. Very low temperatures near -85o C are required to form the crystals, which is why nacreous clouds are seen mainly during winter over places like Alaska, Iceland and Scandinavia.
