... self-absorption - the absorption of light shining on an object by a process similar to that which produced the light originally; if a cloud emits less light than it absorbs from other clouds behind it, this net loss of light, termed self-absorption , causes the foreground cloud to appear darker than the background field (the term is from spectroscopy, where small absorption dips sometimes occur in larger emission lines, making the latter look as if it is absorbing part of itself) . ...

... This is a false color image of HR 4796A composed of visible and near-IR light (blue=STIS, green=1.71 micron, red=2.22 micron). It's red color is caused by dust grains that scatter light poorly in the visible and very efficiently in the near-IR.
