Dear Roman,
If I understand correctly, your question is more about the fact that you
find an oval instead of a circle. Is that right?
In that case, the answer is: pgfplots uses the loglog coordinate system
as expected, but it rescales the unit vectors in order to a) fit the
axis into the prescribed dimensions and b) to view a "good" portion of
the axis. This rescaling is usually not the same for both axis,
resulting in an oval rather than a circle. Consider using the "axis
equal" option in order to get a real circle (although this will change
your limits such that the axis still fits into the dimensions).
Does this help?
Concerning the placement: it seems to me that the placement is correct.
The unit "0.25" and the coordinate "(0,-0.25)" are expressed in the
completely scaled pgfplots system which means that their meaning is a
little bit unclear.
Best regards
Christian
