Sunset on a Golden Sea by Pete Lawrence On April 17, 2010 the sky was clear and the Sun’s colour was spectacular as night approached. This striking telescopic view even captures the Sun’s swollen and distorted shape from the southern coast of the UK. Reflecting a bright column of sunlight, the sea also appears golden, with the horizon marked by the city of Portsmouth.
