The Chromosphere's layer is just about the temperature layer of the Sun. It is visible as a flash of color at the beginning and end of full solar eclipses. The temperature increases with height going up to around 20000 Kelvin at the top. The sun is actually white in color. The false color of orange is because of blue lighted atmospheric scattering.

The photosphere, although it would be more accurate to say the outer layers of the Sun TRANSMIT light. Light, as energy from matter conversion, is MADE in the fusion core and works its way tediously through the conduction and convection zones to the radiation layer, where it leaves for Earth and other points. It may take hundreds to thousands of years to travel from core to photosphere and then it gets all the way to Earth in 499 seconds.

Comments: That's a pretty good answer, but as I understand it,

electromagnetic radiations are actually produced at different levels within the Sun.

The photons produced in the core are gamma rays. Much of the visible light energy is indeed produced in the photosphere.

Also, I usually say that light reaches Earth in about 500 seconds.

Earth's orbit is not an exact circle of course and the distance to the Sun varies.

The visible layer of the sun from Earth is the photosphere. But I do believe all layers give off visible light, some more than others.
