Hey smart guys - I'm hoping you can help me out a bit with a question.
Long story short I'm writing a story set around buoyant habitats in the clouds of Venus around that Goldilocks point where it's around 1G.
I'm not trying to make a textbook accurate depiction but do want to be as accurate as I can manage...and I really don't trust many of the online depictions of the Venusian atmosphere. Since that's where my characters will be I'd like be somewhat confident in how I present it.
Is it like pic related? Are the colors more that acidic yellow or closer to orange? I'm just not sure.

Any help would be really appreciated!

Free floating habitats are retarded

I do! I tried to be pretty transparent that I'm not versed. My last science class was a decade and change ago.

Give me a bit. The altitude a colony will be at will probably be very cloudy and foggy most of the time, but it will be as bright as day time on earth. Solar intensity at the top is higher. Sulfuric acid clouds are VERY DISPERSE though, similar mass loading to cirrus clouds.
>1G
No retard, 1atm. Gravity changes little with altitude
