 Standing lenticular cloud on the lee side of the Rockies. This lenticular cloud formed just before sunset and caught the long wavelength light. High winds at high altitudes plus a disruption from the mountain range causes the lenticular cloud formation.

0.9 soft grad ND filter.

Better size here.
