Even on the opposite site oft the setting sun, the evening sky often shines red. The opposite evening red appears a few minutes before sunset and lasts until about half an hour after sunset. It comes about because the finest dust in the eastern atmosphere acts like a projection screen a few hundred kilometers away and scatters back the light of the evening sun. The opposite evening red usually contains hardly any yellow components. The reason: the light path through the atmosphere is much longer than that of the evening red. Not only the blue, but also the green and yellow parts of the sunlight are scattered to the sides. Close to the horizon, the haze is so dense that it does not let any light through, but only scatters the light of the blue sky near the zenith.
The picture is offered as a fineart print on photo rag paper 320 g/m² in the size 40 x 60 cm.
