South Polar Clouds and Shadows (Natural Colors; credits: Lunexit)
Caption NASA:"This image of Neptune's South Polar Region was obtained by the NASA Voyager 2 Probe narrow-angle camera on Aug. 23, 1989, when it was at a distance of about 25 MKM (about 1,6 MMs). 
The smallest cloud features are 45 Km (about 28 miles) in diameter. Also this image shows the discovery of shadows in Neptune's Atmosphere, shadows cast onto a deep cloud bank by small elevated clouds. Located at about 68° South Lat., they are the first cloud shadows ever seen by the Voyager on any Planet. 
The dark regions adjacent to the small bright clouds are believed to be shadows, because they are on the side of the cloud that is opposite to the incoming Sunlight and also because they lengthen in places where the Sun lies closer to the horizon".
