Exactly the same picture here over the UK (JO03) approx 09.40 UTC
I wondered what the dark horizontal feature might be. Unfortunately the
Sun was in the wrong place, so much glare. I should have got up earlier.

Looking at the multiple reflections I wonder how many layers make up the
windows / portholes? 4 or 5 by the look of it.
