Hawaii Green Flash at Sunset Captured on the 4K LiveStream

Green Flash at sunset caught on camera on the North Shore of Oahu's first-ever 24/7 4K livestream. This sunset view looks West towards Mokulēʻia and Ka'ena Point, the most westerly tip of Oahu. Look for it every night! Sunset times are listed in the stats bar at the bottom of the video. This green flash was captured on March 17, 2024.
You can experience this view of the Green Flash in person by staying at the North Shore Waimea Bay oceanfront home: www.booking.com/Share-K6HjbK and cottage: www.booking.com/Share-2pAQQf. AfarTV subscribers get 10% off their stay!
This view overlooks the mouth of iconic Waimea Bay, the site of the famous big wave surfing competition the Eddie Aikau. The period spanning from November to February stands out as the optimal window for witnessing large wave surfing. During these months, the waves can reach staggering heights, occasionally exceeding thirty feet, posing a significant risk even for seasoned surfers. It's crucial to always pay attention to warning signs. In contrast, from May to September, the waves mellow out, cultivating a more serene environment suitable for surfing and swimming.

    I had to watch several times to catch whats being called a "green flash" in this vid! I've seen the real one once in my life near Tillamook on the Oregon coast. However what I experianced was a bit different than this one... You would've missed it if you blinked but the whole atmosphere around flashed green. I had a similar experiance in arizona right before a storm. The atmosphere actually turned a pinkish hue.

    Reported by sailors for centuries but this is the first time filmed, I think. Depends on calm winds, proper, clear-air humidity and watching at the right time. It's very rare.

    Thanks. Looks a bit bluish on my phone. Reckon it is possibly an interference pattern where the light is refracted as you get with a slit.

    If it is on film it is probably an artifact of the camera sensor having its white balance thrown off in low light.

    2 ай бұрын

    @ctsean Yes, it will be in one tiny spot, because the white balance in that spot was never accurate to begin with. Once the intensity drops, the false color becomes apparent due to the different responsiveness of the three pixel filter colors. In a camera you will see all sorts of weird local colors when there is a large change in brightness because of this. An image is recorded on a mosiac of one red, one blue and two green pixels, which are combined in camera to produce a false color that forms the image we see. That combining of information from camera pixels to generate the final image is what produces these sorts of local color shifts.

    Um ...Hello!!!!!...it can be seen with the naked eye, so it has absolutely NOTHING to do with anything photographically related! Yes, optics and light related, but certainly not a camera's white balance getting f***** with. I live on Hawaii island and have seen the green flash with my own 2 eyes in real time, as it happened. So there you have it, debate resolved.
