Detailed Solution

If the size of particles is larger than the wavelength of light, Mie scattering is more relevant, and the scattering behavior doesn't favor one color over another as strongly as Rayleigh scattering does. This is why we often don't see a dominant color associated with scattering in environments where Mie scattering is prevalent, like in conditions with larger particles such as water droplets or dust.
