Note that Southern Hemisphere photos have a different perspective than Northern Hemisphere view, so the personas appear in different locations vs a vs the Ecliptic.
1. has an object at 4 o’clock and close to the Sun that is not part of the lens flares in the photo. This object is causing the Red Cross position of what is normally a vertical flare with horizontal cross flare from the Sun.
2. has an object at 3 o'clock in addition to the object at 4 o'clock!
