Brady, you make three kinds of videos. The "that was interesting" type, the "I remember that, I think I'll watch it again" type and the ones you never forget and watch again and again. This is one of many. Marvelous.

The thing to remember about the Green Flash is that pictures do not do it justice. I am told by people who have actually seen it that to the naked eye, the green color is the most vivid, purest imaginable green... nothing like what the camera captures. And the Belt of Venus is just as impressive (The Shadow of the Earth, gently covering you with Night!) and much, much easier to see.

Sunsets and sunrises are among my favorite natural phenomenon. I love the moment where the sky turns that beautiful pinkish/light purplish color. My parents live in Naples, FL where the sun sets directly over the Gulf of Mexico. One time while we were visiting and eating at restaurant right on the beach, my mom mentioned the time that they saw the "green flash". I never heard about this before and assumed it was something unique to that area. This was filmed over the Pacific Ocean during an absolutely gorgeous sunset. I live in So Calif, where we enjoy gorgeous sunsets that don't quite appear squarely over the ocean like this. The west coast curves making the ocean to the South instead of directly west. Is the green flash only visible to the naked eye when the horizon is directly over water? Now I want to see this for myself if I know where and when to look for it. I also love rainbows. I have a crummy cell phone video on my channel of beautiful full double rainbow I shot from my front yard. Anyway, I really enjoyed and learned a lot from this video. Thanks for posting it!

One of the most interesting things about the green flash is that we used to think it was just a trick of the eye, from red of the sunset bleaching the retina. It took a while before we were able to film it and prove it really existed.

I love this! Great feeling when I realized he was talking about chromatic aberration from atmospheric refraction. Also known as dispersion, but an ADC can't compensate here because the rest of the sun is occluded by the horizon. Would be neat to put it through a spectroscope to see the colours getting masked off.

The light shines through layers of air of varying temperatures, so the disc gets 'sliced', a bit like taking a photograph of a ball, cutting it into slices, and loosely assembling the pieces. The spiky appearance is caused by some of the layers distorting or magnifying to slightly different degrees. Happy birthday.

For shooting the sun with a super telephoto lens you should put an ND filter which reduces the amount of light that reach the sensitive digital image sensor. An ND 100000 filter reduces the amount of light around 16 times. Also a small aperture reduces further the amount of light. Most super telephoto lenses have an f/22 aperture or the smaller f/32. However ND 100000 filters are very expensive and f/22 or the smaller f/32 aperture creates serious diffraction which lowers the quality of photos. An affordable and practical solution is to put two ND 1000 filters one upon each other on the lens and select f/16. ND 1000 filters with excellent quality are much more affordable than the very special ND 100000 filters. Both ND 1000 filters reduce 20 times the amount of light but the use of two instead of one may create vignetting which is the darkening of the corners of photos. The f/16 creates less diffraction and delivers better quality. The f/11 allows double the amount of light than f/22, it doesn't create diffraction and offer excellent quality of photos but it can be dangerous to the sensor. An ideal solution is the use of special filters for solar observation. They are not cheap and don't have the same optical quality like the common ND filter which can be used for many kinds of photography. Also they can be used only for shooting the sun.
