Effect of the sun -- you mean cockpit self shading?
Or possibly sun glare. I've noticed that sometimes sun glare effects persist in external view when the game is paused, even when you pivot so you're not facing the sun. Not only is it somewhat unrealistic, it also messes up screen shots.
Lens flare effects can be turned off in the conf.ini.
