Lenticular clouds and panoramas from the Alps

[karadan]

I've just come back from skiing in the Italian Alps and thought i'd share some nice panoramas and pics of lenticular clouds


This panorama is Mont Blanc, an incredible mountain.

A lovely one of the mountain looming over the resort of La Roseire.

The first lenticular cloud i've ever seen in real life (as far as i can remember).

And another. Lenticular clouds are awesome.

If anyone knows of any sites where i can host the images without having to downscale them, i'd be very greatful. Unfortunately photobucket limits them to 1mb.

Beautiful - I've never seen lenticular clouds in person.

... they must be hiding UFO's in the Alps!

Thanks peeps!

Hehe, that cloud could be hiding an Independence day style craft, for sure!

Nice pics karadan.

[However it's so sad that the Alps (and many more mountains) are being raped by the ski resorts.   ]

Could be the 3rd peak is l'aiguille du clapet?

It's been years since I last went to the Alps

A good way to host your pics could be picasa. I use this one to stock my pics (99% of them are about climbing/mountains btw)
