18/07/20 – Huallay, Cerro De Pasco – Peru – 4,340 M.A.S.L Arriving at one of my favorite places in Peru after being in lockdown for 6 months and finding this majestic phenomenon occurring right in front of my eyes after so much time isolated, left me speechless. This 8-photo stitched panorama resembles the view I received as a welcome gift right after sunset. The “Belt of Venus” is an atmospheric phenomenon that creates a pink band in the sky at sunrise. It´s actually the area between Earth’s shadow and the blue sky. The belt is similar to alpenglow, which creates a reddish glow just over the horizon. The name is due to an association of the phenomenon with the Greek goddess Aphrodite and roman goddess Venus. It´s not associated with the planet Venus. 28346 x 6273 Jpeg 240 x 53 CM Fine Art metallic cotton print framed in Aluminum delivered worldwide for the collector of this Image.
