Green Sky

Saturday, September 27, 2014

As I was at my Indian Party (Navarati), my friends a I was so hungry after all that dancing. So we went outside to my dads car, because he had Godfathers pizza in his car. Oh my god! The pizza was so good, I mean everything taste good on a empty stomach. So we were sitting outside on the trunk, while eating the pizza I was just staring at the sky, it was 10:30ish I believe. And it was just kind of wired how I took a sticky note and a pen out of my dads front seat and started down writing the most beautiful thing I saw. A green big spot in the sky. It was marvelous. I didn't really knew at that point what caused it, but it was gorgeous how there was a green spot in the sky and the rest covered with pink clouds. I wish I can go back to that day and take picture with that scenario. It looked like Antarctica. It was just drop dead gorgeous, how there was no stars no moon nothing, but the green spot surrounded with pink clouds. But I wonder what causes this clouds to change colors.

 I got this picture off of Google. But it didn't quit looked like what I saw so, I edited the picture to make it look like what I saw.

So then later on the week, I was researching what causes the clouds to change color on couple of this websites:
http://optics.kulgun.net/Cloud-Colour/
http://www.srh.noaa.gov/jetstream/clouds/color.htm
and I was quit impressed on what I found out on what causes the clouds to change colors. While I was reading the cause of the change colors it said that,  "Probably the most unusual color for a cloud is green. This is thought to be due to a cloud containing a large amount of water being back lit by reddish light, such as at sunset. Water is naturally blue because it absorbs red. The light falling on the cloud appears red because the blue component has been scattered, and then the red component is absorbed by the water in the cloud, leaving green."

After that I was looking at this other website and I found this chart of the colors and the cause.

After all this research the most funniest thing I found out Is there is no pink color clouds. Its red.
