Scattering of light means to throw light in various random direction.......the extremely minute particles such as the air molecules present in the atmosphere scatter mainly the blue light present in the white light .. The scattering of blue component of the white sunlight by air molecules present in the atmosphere causes blue colour of the sky ..

During the most of the shorter wavelenghts present in it are scattered away from our line of sight by the molecules of air and other fine particles in the atmospher so light reaching us directly from the rising or setting Sun consists mainly of the longer wavelenght red colour bcoz of which object in the dim light.
