23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Glory
Or have you ever witnessed a dazzling display of light and color in the sky? One such phenomenon is the glory. A rainbow-like light effect that occurs when the sun's rays strike fog or clouds from behind. And this was a pure and amazing gift from nature to me, this time above an ocean of clouds in front of the towering Mount Damavand.
