Description
These may be Cirrocumulus lacunosus clouds. Is very difficult to pinpoint a particular type of cloud but this description from Wikipedia seemed to fit the best.Picture was taken in August in South Eastern British Columbia over Kootenay Lake, B.C.
This is the information found on en.wikipedia.org: "Cirrocumulus lacunosus is a type of cirrocumulus cloud. The name cirrocumulus lacunosus is derived from Latin, meaning "full of hollows". Cirrocumulus lacunosus is a relatively rare cloud form that occurs as a layer of cloud with circular holes in it. These holes normally have frayed edges, and they are often arranged in a manner that resembles a net or a honeycomb."
If anyone has any other suggestions, ideas or references, I'd be pleased to hear them.

Leone, I love clouds, but have *never* seen anything like this! Lucky you to have the chance to capture this phenomena!

Hi Wendy - I had never seen anything like this before - or since either! Was SO amazing and I was glad I was camera ready!
