Have you ever heard of the green flash during a sunset? It's e very rare optical phenomenon that sometimes occurs seconds before the sun is totally set.
Flashes of green light can bee seen on the edge of the sun just above the horizon. I did read something about it but never have seen one. Basically the earths atmosphere breaks down the light or reflects the light accept the last little bit of green. If the sky is clear and the horizon flat and kalm it may apear

I was on the beach of the province of Zeeland the Netherlands where i saw this couple walk by. Always nice to have people in a landscape picture. I followed them (had permission) to see if there where some nice shits to make of them.
