The Green Flash
I was cruising up Highway 1 on my way to the Jammin on Haight tie dye fashion show and the conditions were perfect to see the green flash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_flash) . This flash can occur if it is perfectly clear over the ocean to the horizon. As the tip of the sun passes just below the ocean’s surface, light from the sun passes through the ocean and refracts to your eye. For just a second you see the green color of the sea as light, then it disappears. I have looked for this phenomena for over 40 years. Friday I saw it for the 7th time in my life. I knew the night would be magical. It was!
