When the sun sets over the ocean, at this time of year, we make a point of standing still and watching as the last of the sun disappears "into the ocean".
If the atmospheric conditions are of a particular nature, a vivid green flash of light can be seen immediately after the last of the sun. It's a rare treat and lasts only a fraction of a second. From our verandah here on Phillip Island I've seen it about six times in about 12 years of looking. What a privilege! Tonight there was no green flash, but there was a stunning golden sunset.
