These are very impressive. I have never seen a mirage like this, despite spending years in the far north. I did see mirages in the desert of Saudi Arabia but that is more like an optical illusion, seeing hills, dunes and sandstone stumps apparently floating in the air. One thing I once saw in Scotland, off the west coast was a cloud formation which looked exactly like the Cuillin of Skye. I was so taken in by it that I thought I was way off course - I was far too far north to see Skye from such an angle, but there it was, or seemed to be. Eventually the apparent Cuillin range broke up and dissipated away like a dream...
