No doubt, pix shows latley different things, a different situation around the Sun.

Moon swirls in the tail of Planet X waft between the Earth and Sun, scattering light through the swirls like a tube, with the intense blood redness of the dust cloud illuminated on the periphery. Here the predominance of light on the Sun side, with shadow away from the Sun, is evident, demonstrating the swirls position between the Earth and Sun. Note that in the first photo, the moon swirl catching the light in the last photo can be seen as a faint persona at 2 o'clock. In the second photo, the moon swirl catching the light in the third photo can be seen as a faint persona at 10 o'clock. These Surround Persona moon swirls seem to come and go, depending upon when the light is captured by the tube they form and focused toward the viewer.
