APOD 11



Located over the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Grenada, Spain a cloud cap formed due to the upward air force that cools and condences, becoming a cloud that capped around the peak of the mountain. It even forms lenticular cloud layers as the condenced water vapor encircles around the center of the air source. Its color is due to the reflecting beams the sun reflects during its sunset onto the condensating cloud. I chose this photo for a break between stars and constellations, also finding interest in how this cap cloud formed.
