Waiting for the Green Flash

The Green Flash is an atmospheric phenomenon where as the sun sinks into the water at the very last instant there will be a flash of green light. Conditions have to be just right for it to occur. While it is not altogether rare, it is not at all commonplace either, so it is special when it occurs. Unfortunately for his couple it didn't happen this night, but they still enjoyed a wonderful sunset together.

You learn something new every day. I didn’t know that happened. A good reason to go back every night and watch for the green flash!

flash or no flash it is certainly a sumptuous scene, with additional spark from the well caught flyby...they appear to have their feet in the surf, sampling that cool, soothing massage..

Great composition and a beautiful sunset, even without the green flash.
