Distorted Sunrise and Green Flash ᐉ

Timelapse video of sunrise in northern Canada shows the distorted view of the sun at the horizon due to strong atmospheric refraction. For a brief moment in the video a little green light at the top of the solar disc appears. Difficult to observe, the momentary “green flash” above the rising or setting sun has been documented as a phenomenon caused by the atmospheric bending or refraction of sunlight.
