Magnificent Cirrocumulus activity and Cirrus cloud system were captured on photography above Denmark on April 2, 2010. While helping my girlfriend in her colony garden in Odense city, I took pictures of the weather. And there was a lot of Cirrocumulus cloud activity above us. This type of cloud system can create a magnificent sight with its sophisticated fine-meshed patterns.

It is not every day you see Cirrocumulus weather systems. The cloud type is composed of very small elements and consists of supercooled water below freezing and ice crystals.

Cirrus or unknown type of cloud?
The beautifully laid out cloud below is what I believe a small Cirrus cloud section. I am not 100% sure. The cloud chart on NWS does not have this type of cloud. This could also be the fragments of an aviation contrail maybe.
