Green Flash
There is a optical phenomena that most boaters have seen or have heard about. It usually occurs over water as the sun sets on the horizon. It can also happen at sunrise over water, the moment before the sun breaks the horizon. Sharon and I saw our first one on January 3rd when we were at Warderick Wells and the sun was setting. On January 19th I witnessed my second event and it was the best of the two I have seen. Sharon claims she did not see it. It may have been that she blinked at the moment the event occurred. As the sun is setting, at the very last moment (read less than a second) the light is transformed by a prism effect and the sun emits a green light. This optical phenomena is known as a green flash. (Sorry, no pictures of the event)
