OK, not really, but these are some of the most unusual Pics I've ever taken out on a Scooter Ride. On one of Our Smokies Trips on the Elite 110s, we happened up on these conditions on the Foothills Parkway above The Dragon, just outside Townsend and Maryville. The elevation here is about 2800 feet, but the clouds were so thick that they looked like Cotton. It looked virtually like You could walk on Them.....
As far as You could see, nothing else was visible. We have never encountered it like this again...mighta' been a "once-in-a-lifetime" moment.....!!!!!

Re: "COTTON"...
I have not seen anything like that before, mind due london doesnt have that many tall mountains really.
One day i shall go for a ride with the dlsr and contribute to this thread with some urban london shots if the weather is good.
