This photo of Mt Shasta in Northern California is my first entry for theme [Mountains in Black and White](https://steemit.com/wiwcontest/@dmcamera/new-theme-for-week-23-wiwcontest-mountains-in-black-and-white-week-22-winners) in the *White Is White* photography contest, #wiwcontest, by @dmcamera.

This was taken on a day earlier this year when there were many formations of lenticular clouds that came and went during the late morning. Some days these saucer-like clouds form above or close to the mountain and stay stationary for a long time - usually it's just one large cloud. But this particular day, there were multiple small clouds, and each cloud didn't last longer than 15 minutes or so and then the next one formed.
