Here's an example of a cloud that I fail to understand the  reasons for it being so grey:

 

 

The view is looking north towards the south downs from Portsea Island (Portsmouth), 1:50pm July16 2014. The sky is brilliantly clear overhead, with just a few thin cirrus over towards the north, and hot sunshine behind the photographer. Yet these more distant clouds are fringed (on all edges, top and bottom) with dark grey, and there is no indication that they are bathed in sunlight, as they surely must be, since there are no other clouds between these and the sun. 

 

So I am wondering if anyone can explain how the illusion works?

Gosh! Not really seen anything quite like that before! An interesting assortment of colours.

It's passed over now, but a few piccy's of the dark, beastly, skies late this evening.
