Alsó parhélikus kör és alellennap - Subparhelic Circle and Subanthelion

Sajnos szabad szemmel csak a fehér foltot és a repülő árnyékát láttam. Kb 20 percen át tartott, és a nyolc kép közül, amit készítettem, leginkább ezen kivehető, hogy az antiszoláris pontban az alellennapon áthalad az alsó parhélikus kör és a diffúz ívek. A kép február 14-én készült helyi idő szerint 15:59-kor Bulgária felett.

With naked eyes only the white spot and the airplane's shadow were visible. The phenomenon lasted about 20 minutes, and out of the 8 photos, this shows the best how the subanthelion appears at the crossing of the subparhelic circle and the large X of the diffuse arcs. The photo was taken on 14 February at 15:59 local time above Bulgaria.

Lucky with the seat ! But I guess the sun view was richer considering the fact that the subanthelion appeared.

I usually try to get my seat facing on the sun...I hope one day I'll get a subparhelia with reflected Lowitz arcs.

Originally I also asked for a seat on the other side, but the check-in woman seems to have confused her left and right hand. I was angry at first, but later I did not mind.

Unfortunately I could not check the other side, as it was lunch-time when the subanthelion appeared, and all the trays were down :(

There is only one more image where the antisolar arcs appear, but it is much worse. In the others it is only a white spot, nothing more. So unfortunately, there is no good material for stacking.
