Default Mammatus ?

Good people of the weather group,

Could you take a look at a some pics of a cloud that I took today?
http://home.btconnect.com/John-Knight/060402/

I'm hoping it qualifies as Mammatus since I've only seen them on
websites before, despite many years experience with clouds (as an
astronomer...)

Thanks for your opinions,
JK

Default Mammatus ?

Yep, looks like it to me. On the underside of a nice single cell Cb.

It is indeed mammatus. It's a nice meaty single cell Cb too.
