RE: Red: Science Picture Challenge #3 - Beautiful sunset
But again, The more dust particles in the atmosphere, the more beautiful the sunset/sunrise.
Nice picture btw.
Also wanna participate, are there any set of guidelines? Would mean a lot.
Thank you!
Actually, dust is large, it scatters more wavelengths, the colour of sunwave would be less vivid.
Here is the link of the challenge, feel free to participate!

Would appear more reddish due to the scattering, hence more beautiful.
So, pollution helps in a way i guess ;) or not!
And thank you. :)
Oh, it seems depends on the sizes of pollutants!
Small aerosols made sunset even redder because of more scattering as you said! But large particles turns the colour of the sky muddy.
