Here in Israel When the sun rises or sets, it usually have a color like this: Or even dimmer red. However: In north countries like Alaska or Norway, when the sun is low at the south or north horizon, it have colors like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1O13z6qRETY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIlG8x5Qa_s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWvq-1wtxUY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI7wpQx9o-c In short terms: In most north countries, when the sun reaches the horizon, it don't gets red at all. and also stay bright.

It is depending upon the quality of the atmosphere that you are seeing.  My guess is that more pollution in the air, it can go redder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_optics

Haifa and Kiryat Ata, are very close to Bazan oil refinery and other chemical factories, which are one of the most polluting area in Israel. Probably because of this the sun is red here during sunsets and sunrises.

Years ago people used to say if the sunset is red, then stormy weather is on the way. And I must say, it always seems to hold true from what I’ve experienced.

Collect vintage incandescent and fluorescent fixtures. Also like HID lighting and streetlights.
