Details:
The display lasted around 30 minutes. First to appear were the upper tangent and high-sun sundog (sun elevation at that time was about 43°). The sundog had a short tail that slowly elongated to a parhelic circle. Along with that appeared a faint, very partial 22° halo, and maybe even traces of a Parry arc. As I suspected, when the parhelic got long enough the 120° parhelia had shown, and as it got stronger the tangent arc became gradually fainter until it disappeared altogether. After that the 120° parhelia was gone and finally the short segment of the parhelic. The images are processed in order to emphasize the halos.
