The
Belt of Venus Two compact camera images of the Belt of Venus. Looking East as the Sun sets in the West, the sunlight is scattered by the atmosphere, giving a pink band of light. The darker area below is the shadow of the Earth. The effect was more bold than the camera captured. The pink band extended from East North East to South South West. 21-10-15 |
