Description
I'm actually not sure if these are nacreous clouds or not. If they were, they were some lower-level form of them. Most images I've seen of nacreous clouds are higher in the sky and much smoother. It's possible that this was simply iridescence occurring in clouds of a particularly strange shape. Either way, it was certainly a unique sight to witness. I didn't manipulate this image.

Weird! Is this during a sunrise/sunset, or is the light just feeling playful?

This was a bit before sunset. However, the colors in the clouds weren't caused by that. This typically happens when the sun is close to clouds, no matter the time of day

This is the kind of thing you see after rubbing the lamp, before the genie materializes.
