Avaia: Behind the Shot
Avaia is a one-of-a-kind moment high in the hills of Central California. A deep crimson red sunset hangs thick above the setting sun and distance ocean. Layered hills frame the setting sun’s unique display of miraging banding of reds, oranges and yellows topped with a flash of green - a unique atmospheric phenomenon. A ‘Green Flash’, occurs when conditions are just right, wherein the atmosphere acts as a prism, allowing the normally scattered green light to pass through to our eyes. This was my first experience of this phenomenon and it was truly magnificent. Only flashing for 1-2 seconds, I shot continuously throughout the sunset, hoping I was capturing this unique moment and composition.
