The image shows Altocumulus lenticularis in patches, with the classic lens shape and well-defined smooth outlines. Some of the patches are superposed (variety duplicatus), as seen at 1, 2 and 3, giving them the appearance of a pile of plates (pile d'assiettes in French). Green and particularly pink colours of irisation are visible on the edges and thinner parts of most of the lenticular patches.
Small cumuliform tufts indicate Altocumulus floccus, which is the other clearly identifiable species present.
