Thanks Alex. The other aspect about that image is it shows Venus's atmosphere. See the different colour above and below Venus? I believe that was first proof way back that Venus had an atmosphere. Its atmosphere is refracting the sunlight and causing the colour. Or at least that is what I think is the case.
