This was inferred to be from the same sortie as post #144 and post #159 (photographed by Bob Lawson) , though I have absolutely no idea where I could even find a copy with the original photograph's quality. . . What a shame ! Banger image . I hope everyone enjoys it . :)

Trying to figure out a tag for this.

holm of the sky
karman horizon

You could also do atmospheric_gradient but that's a little boring.

I think just high altitude would cover that. Holm of the sky is not a term I've ever seen before and Karman Horizon is understandable if you know your terminology but has various interpretations based on context and is not intuitive for tagging.
