Wegener arc or Parhelic circle

I now believe i might have seen a  Wegener arc in the sky.
or was it  a Parhelic circle, more likely, but i had the impression that the circle was above the sun.

the Wegener arc is connected to the Tangent arc, and the dipped rainbow line above the sun is called Tangent arc, i definitely saw a Tangent arc.ehhh or called Parry's tangent?

This was March 28 in Whitehorse around noon.
