Tiwi gold

Sunset tonight looking north towards the Tiwis. There seems to be a faint green band going from the top right of the cloud to the left . It is in all the shots I took.

Possibly got something to do with this? I don't know.

........The idea is that water is blue because is absorbed red light. If a thunderstorm contains enough water and is illuminated by sunlight which is reddish because the blue component has been scattered, such as at sunset, then the absorption of red light by the water will result in a green colour.
