Details:
I relaxed on the beach looking at evolving clouds.
Suddenly, I saw a Death Ray from the sun pointing to earth! Was it the End of the World? No, just a well-placed contrail and its shadow aligned to highlight it. Actually, there were a partial sun halo and two planes contrails with shadowns. I started taking pictures using my smartphone. Back at home, I saw that the shadow of the main contrail moved from one side of the contrail to the other due to a combination of cloud and sun displacement.
