Re: there was a kind of rainbow inside a cloud caused by the moon tonight

there was a kind of rainbow inside a cloud caused by the moon tonight

...and i don't know what it's called :) Is that a moondog ? or a moonbow ? knowing that the diffracted light was only visible in a large and thin foggy cloud, probably high in the atmosphere ?
