Those are not iridescent clouds, but distant clouds lightened by the orange light of the low sun. Real cloud iridescence is restricted to the relative vicinity of the sun (i.e. mostly within 20 degrees distance) and manifests itself in mother-of-pearl like colours. Those have their origin by diffraction and interference of sunlight rays in cloud particles.
