The elusive green flash, which
occurs when the Sun is near
the horizon and the red, orange,
and yellow light is bent away
from the observer, appears in
this rare image. The imager
employed a 4-inch f/5 refractor.

Palomar 10 is a globular
cluster located approximately
20,000 light-years away in the
constellation Sagitta the Arrow.
Dust in the Milky Way heavily
obscures this object, which
leads to it appearing strongly
reddened. • Bernhard Hubl
