Nice images of the Green (and blue) flash   
A recent press release from Cerro Paranal (home of the VLT) where local 
staff have been photographing the Green Flash (last refracted rays of the 
setting sun, or first rays of the rising sun):

Some nice pics, and possibly the best one I have ever seen of the blue flash 
(which I saw once, but did not photograph).
