This image shows gravity waves in clouds. By the skew-t diagram, it appears these clouds were probably ~6mi up, leading to an assumption that the clouds pictured are Cirrus or Cirrostratus.

Nice job capturing the waviness of the clouds!
Amazing work Hannah! I love the strong lines in this photo, paired with the soft filaments and textures of the clouds!
The perpendicular trails in this image add an interesting composition, I really like it.
Really cool perspective, I like the perpendicular clouds
Being able to see a few of the waves is very nice. The wide-angle shot was a great choice.
Great use of the wide-angle lens! I love the clarity of the clouds. I also like the interaction of the cloud lines in the sky.
These are really cool clouds. I love the wispiness and the airplane contrail!
Really enjoy how you captured the space in between the clouds, Hannah! I also like the use of the wide-angle mode, really captures everything!
Wonderful image! You did an awesome job classifying your cloud
I love how you captured these waves in the clouds! It adds some nice texture to the photo.
