Hi Gail,

From my point of view, it looks like more an usual summer blue sky at sunset (your EXIF data are missing, but it s clearly just after sunset) seen through dark altostratus clouds.
No -bands-, -filaments- or typical waves shapes can be seen on the full resolution picture.
+ At 49,5° North (I am at 48,8° N...), you have to be very lucky to see NLCs...

Good luck for the coming days !?
;-)

Have to agree with Sylvain, I shot similar shots in Calgary the other day thinking they might be NLCs. Good Luck and keep the eyes open!
