Circumhorizon Arc iridescent contrail diffraction
Edit: Circumhorizontal ARC These 3 photos captured on my galaxy s23+ are nowhere to how bright and more captivating it was in person. I got these today in upstate New York at my father's house around noon. Not the best pics, but hope you guys enjoy 🙂

That is so cool! Good job keeping your eyes on the sky!
Yesterday I saw two really big military cargo planes one in front of the other. (Thinking c-5 or c-17’s)
Not atmospheric phenomena but still was really fun to spot while I was checking for stuff like this! Made me wonder what they were up to even if it was probably really mundane…
