This sort of reply is not in the least helpful, did not address the question, nor is it correct. In perfect 9999 visibility, you are implying that pilots restricted to VFR only are only allowed to fly down sun.
It seems many of my landings into low sun have been deliberate blatant illegal acts of flying outside the previleges of my licence.
Incidentally the photographs appear pretty legal to me. Pictures always look worse than the eyeball view out the front.
