These images and movie were taken en route from Orlando FL to Minneapolis MN. Somewhere over Kentucky (I think), we encountered a cloud front soon after which we saw the glory. We flew over the clouds for 13 minutes. As soon as the clouds ended, so did the glory.

All shots were taken with a Canon PowerShot S230 Digital ELPH camera.
