Hi Dennis
Still photography beats video hands down. Yes, trying to capture just one or so still photos is challenging but the results merit the worth of the effort.
I have seen just two of these rare events – one in the Camargue, France and the other at Tarifa, Spain.
Laurence
Lauence, that is a great video capture of a green flash event. Thank you. Those are so fleeting that from now on I should shoot video, too, instead of trying for a still photo…..
Dennis
I think you will be interested in the time lapse photo sequence, lasting for about a minute, of a Green Flash occurring circa, Golden Gate Bridge, USA.
Here it is:-

The imgages come from NASA’s APOD page.

Marvelous.
Well captured, Dennis. This is a very rare event and to capture it in a photograph is something rather special.
Well done!
Laurence
