The first silvery clouds in my area. Quite massive and the SO bright field, the IIA type, to height of 20 degrees. It it is photographed 25.05.12 at 21.23 on UTC, were observed about half an hour.
Photo raw as is. Photos modified, without the filter therefore balance white so-so, plus it is sensitive missed by focus. Other information in exif.

Hi,
That is an excellent observation for this early in the season.
I had my cctv system running last night and suspected there was some faint nlc around 01.30UT at my location but the video was very noisy. It was nowhere near as distinct as you pictures.
Great stuff!
regards,
Bill.
