Regardless of comments from the peanut gallery, your images are great & look very similar to some of these. I had never heard of such clouds before.

Subject: GESO: Mammatus Cloud

We were warned about possible thunderstorms and hail which were supposed to hit during the afternoon today. We actually had fine weather all day, but as I was sitting down to eat my dinner I looked out the window and saw some mammatus cloud. That has been on my list of things I want to see so I grabbed the camera and went outside.

Only trouble is I have a difficult foreground so I had to get what I could. I was wishing I was up on the hill. But the lighting wasn't too bad so I'm quite happy.

I seemed to be standing in a clear patch; the view in the opposite direction (south, where it was coming from) was quite menacing. I thought we were going to be hit big-time but it turned out to be nothing here. From what I can see on the weather radar most of the action occurred out at sea.

Cheers,
Dave
