Ian Loxley, photo editor of the Cloud Appreciation Society, speaking about the picture, he notes: “It is impossible to give a definite answer as to what it can be, but it can be said for sure that this is an interesting shot that will take its rightful place in gallery of the section “Clouds That Look Like Things” (section draws focus on clouds resembling other animate / inanimate objects of our real world). Gallery of submitted clouds quite diverse, here you can see bizarre forms, reminiscent of pigeons, dolphins, objects of UFOs, witches and even angels.
The ability to see certain illusory images in familiar objects the real world is called pareidolia. So, vague enough the visual image is perceived as something specific and distinct, for example, figures of animals in the clouds, a person’s face on Mars or fairytale character on Mercury. Pareidolia consists of two words: “rara” – near, near and “eidolon” – image. IN the case of the “cloud angel” is most likely a religious component intensified in connection with the election of the pope.
Could an angel be an ordinary deception? Hardly since received several photos from completely different observers. But if you prefer to believe that it is a sign from above … business Yours, then this is a matter of your faith exclusively, and the science of the atmosphere here is powerless
