One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The green flash. When there are no clouds on the western horizon, as the sun sets over the blue Caribbean, just at the moment that the sun-ball drops below the horizon there is a flash of green that is nothing short of incredible! Every sunset here is gorgeous in its own way. Some are more spectacular than others.

Teach, Learn, Share
