    I saw a green flash in 2003. Our first night in Waialua Bay, my husband and I walked to the water’s edge to watch the sunset. There were two or three whales about 150 yards out, slapping the water with their tales. The weather was absolutely perfect. And then when the sun set, the green flash. It was the single most magical moment of my life.

    I saw the green flash from the flight deck of the USS Enterprise CVA(N)-65 in December of 1971. We had just finished a 30 day line period on Yankee Station in the Tonkin Gulf and were heading to Subic Bay, Philippines, for resupply and liberty when the India-Pakastani war broke out. The Enterprise and escorts, as Nuclear Task Force 1, were ordered to the Indian Ocean in the event that any US citizens caught up in the hostilities needed evacuation. We were transiting the Straits of Mallaca and I was on the flight deck as sunset approached and recalled reading about the green flash in a novel the previous summer. I wasn't sure it was even a real phenomenon but decided to watch for it and lucked out. I didn't own a movie camera and both my film cameras were in my locker below deck, but I still recall the event and this video comes very close to my experience. It would be easy to overlook the brief flash if you didn't know about it. A couple of years ago I discovered a lesser known Jules Verne work entitled "The Green Flash" in a Kindle collection of his writings. Thanks for sharing your video!

    We sit out on our lanai every evening with a glass of scotch and grade the greenflashes. 2 nights ago was one of the most vivid we've ever seen as a clear horizon surface beneath low horizon clouds magnified the intensity. And the sunbeams shooting skyward were a real framing treat.

    I reckon I've seen my fair share. Happens on rare occasion. At the last glimpse of sunset, a green flash shoots up into the sky. Some go their whole lives without ever seeing it. Some claim to have seen it. And some say.....

    We were on a bus tour on Maui after going to Hana and stopped in Kihei with the bus just at sunset. I said "watch for the green flash" and many people had never heard of it. They were asking questions and I just said watch as the sun is just going out of sight! It was the brightest green flash I ever saw. That was twice in my life I've seen it.

    I’ve seen it 3 times in my life with the naked eye. You need a perfect horizon with no fog or haze. Sometimes it lasts for a split second; sometimes it lasts for several seconds. The longest one I saw was about 3 seconds. It helps to live on a West coast-just gives you a lot more opportunity.

    Little tip if you close your eyes leading up to the sun setting and have someone tell you to open them just as the sun is setting (last 10 seconds or so) on the horizon, you will actually see a bright green flash shoot into the sky from the zenith of the sun. It's pretty cool. Has to be vary clear on the horizon and timed perfectly. Good luck!

    Worked on my dad's fishing boat as a Charter skipper and deckhand, plus a lot of commercial fishing. In all that time I have seen the green spot twice and they were on the same 3 day weekend. So what caused it the first dusk happened to still be in effect the 2nd evening out at Santa Barbara Island some 22 miles west of Catalina Island.

    The green is present always. We can’t see it because the red/orange/yellow masks it. When the red/orange/yellow is attenuated just enough, the green appears visible. Notice that the green is there at the entirety of the video but just at the fringes left and right of the arc that meet the ocean. In effect, a rainbow is beaning towards our eyes as we look at it from its side.

    I saw a pink flash at dusk a few years ago while driving. There wasn't a cloud in the sky. Then i started getting into noble gasses and neon gasses and upper atmospheric anomalies. But I think this Northern Light stuff happening, is at the end of the movie projector in edit, where the film was spliced as we are in overtime lol !

    The green flash is said to be rare, but if you have a clear, distant water horizon and can observe from a somewhat elevated position it is possible to see dozens a year. I have. More challenging is the sunrise green flash, because you have to be staring at the exact spot just as the limb of the sun appears. The phenomenon is complicated by the fact that, due to atmospheric refraction, the sun is actually still below the horizon when it becomes visible.
