Details:
Thanks to the reflection in a parked car's windscreen, I noticed this "upside down rainbow" a.k.a. circumzenithal Arc while being out on a walk. Unfortunately I only had my phone with me to take a photo, but it still shows how beautiful it was ! :-)
It lasted about 3 - 4 minutes, then faded as clouds kept moving. A few minutes later a faint preceding sundog appeared with bits of a 22° halo.
P.S. : I had to edit the image in order to get closer to what it was like to the naked eye. There was no way my phone could render this without some "help"
