Shadow visible as bright area

Flying this morning - typical hazy UK winter sun - I couldn't exactly see my shadow, but there was an area of bright light where it should have been, instead. Where this area passed over anything reflective, e.g. windows, they reflected at me.

Does this phenomenon have a name? I guess the sunlight was reflecting off the haze.
