Mesmerising green ray appears in the sunset sky in northern Spain
  • 6 years ago
The rare sight of a green ray was captured during sunset in northern Spain.

The footage, captured on June 14, shows the moment a green flash appears in the horizon as the sun sets in Donostia.

'Green ray' or 'Green flash' is an atmospheric phenomenon that occurs shortly after sunset or before sunrise, in which a green line is visible on the horizon.

The phenomenon is visible any time the sun rises or sets on a clear, unobstructed and low horizon. 

The filmer writes: ''Throughout my long life, I have only been able to contemplate this phenomenon twice.

''If you are lucky enough to share that unique moment with another person, both of you will inevitably fall in love forever. At least that's what the legend says.''
