Until I see one in person ;-) Now, I need to find a good spot to observe sunsets until I see a green flash, with a fresh beer in hand

after enough beers you're sure to see a green flash ; )

the green flash usually lasts for no more than two seconds so you have to be quick - hehehe...

So it does really exist?

There was a (quite bad) French movie called 'Le Rayon Vert' 30 years ago about this phenomenon.

I became interested in Green Flashes

after watching the following (rather long) video where the phenomenon was mentioned in the Q&A session (last 15 minutes of the video)... BTW the Lewin series of lectures is quite interesting...

Excellent

I have lived within sight of the coast for the last 52 years and despite try periodically, I have never seen it, much less photographed it. Mike ...  

In my 40 years I’ve only seen it once

Which I believe was about 25 years ago.
