This Earth Sci pic of the day selection is of cloud formations stacked atop the Omataco Mountains in Namibia, Africa.

Outstanding.

wow, man, it's like a cosmic reel to reel, with no tape.

übercool.

Wow, strapless. Nice picture, UT. I wonder if those are termite mounds in the foreground?

Yes, and these in background are too

sorry, couldn't resist :)

Whoa...

Almost looks "not real", and yet...ah hell, it's still a cool ass pic. ;)

I always wondered what it would like like to see a giant marshmallow smushed against a mountain top.

Wow great picture. That's one place on my "to visit" list. :)

Don't lie to me.:haha:

I always knew these guys would show up someday

although these don't have the look i believe they're lenticular clouds. here is a little explanation on them. all i know is that in flight school they tell you to stay the hell away from them. high winds and extreme severe turbulance.

it's wonderful. not only because of the clouds, but the scenery in itself is worth seeing...
I wanna go there !

MMMM, Flaky Layers Biscuits. New diet, see food everywhere. Elf needs food, badly.

Another cool cloud. Mt. Fuji?

Here is one that I shot while in Patagonia near the Torres del Payne National Park, must be something to do with clouds over high altitude mountains, but I'm no meteorologist!
