Details:
A mirage of an astronomical object is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon, in which light rays are bent to produce distorted or multiple images of astronomical objects as the sun and moon . Inferior mirages of the sun or moon are the most common mirages. One well-known shape is the Etruscan vase. When I took the photo the upper part of the sun was cut by clouds. So, I called it 'Glass shaped sun' or 'cocktail glass'.
