Recent analyses of the anisotropy of cosmic ray arrival direction around 1018 eV show significant excesses from the regions close to the Galactic Center and Cygnus. Our aim is to check whether such anisotropies can be caused by single sources. We investigate propagation of protons in the Galactic regular and turbulent magnetic fields assuming that these particles are injected by short lived discrete sources within our Galaxy. We show that the effect of the regular magnetic field may cause a double image of the source, with quite large angular distances from the actual direction. The image is strongly dependent on time elapsed from particle ejection and is also very sensitive to their energy.
