  Only trouble is that they are not Nacreous clouds. The clouds are cirrus and it looks to me like it could be a CZA.

    I think it is a circumzenithal arc, George. But you are right – Google does not do well on CZA.
    
    Graham, is it The Times, or is it Getty (who have the image copyright)?
