That (the glow) is called the 'Glory'. It's so cool to see it. I love window seats. It's so great to be able to rise above the clouds and storms into the crystal-ish clear skies above. It looks like you could almost walk on it at times. Great shot!!

Thanks! I never knew that's what it's called. And you're right about window seats.

Years ago when I lived in Glendale CA, I would go for my weekly motorcycle ride on Sunday mornings on the Angeles Crest Highway. One Sunday it was overcast and not very pleasant, but I went anyway by myself. Ride started foggy, but when I climbed to about 2000ā€™, I suddenly came out of the fog to a clear blue sky and warm sunshine! I looked all around and all I could see was the white fluffy top of the fog layer. Rest of the ride was great, it was just like taking off in a plane and breaking through the clouds. A pleasant surprise.

Hi, new to this thread. Are the photos limited to iPhones? Thanks
No....anyone can use any tool at their disposal, including cell phone cameras, Point-and-shoot cameras (both film and digital), SLRs (Single Lens Reflex, both film and DSLR [digital]), and mirrorless digital cameras (P&S, Compact, Interchangeable Lens (ILC).....etc.

There are also other threads in other locations on MR which are iPhone photos only, some restricted to a particular model and year of iPhone.
