Image Details:

One of the coolest suns I have seen. "cool" as in cooler pink as opposed to warmer orange (as it should be during a typical July sunset), There was NO glare as I looked at it directly. You can see the smog at ground level in the distant tree line. Yesterday the smog was thick enough to block the sun completely during the sunset hours.
