One more abstract attempt at a composition - a long exposure as well.

@Judy: Judy, thanks for the comment! In this photo it was taken with a zoom lens - there are two lines - the dark one is the sea/sky line and that may vary due to the use of a zoom lens and the ocean itself with the swells, the second upper dark line is a fog bank wich is where the sun is setting - behind the fog bank of clouds - I think this dips due to the sun rays blowing out the darkness in that area(overexposing) so in that area all you see is light vs. a nice straight horizon line - that's my deep thought on it??
@Tony Duque: Tony, I am not sure if I can answer the question - maybe two parts - if I understand it?? - however, I think the cloud/sun layer would never show a green flash because the angle of the sun is higher in the sky and would not produce the same angle of light rays through the atmosphere in comparison to the ocean/sun horizon line - and I think, from what I have read on green flashes you need a very long horizon line and a "clearer" atmosphere - thus the ocean would give you a much better chance of catching the green flash - since it is due to the rays interaction with the atmosphere just before going below the horizon line. I also read that a zoom lens would work better to actually try and photograph a green flash. I have read these are difficult to catch with the human eye - however, I also read that the moon and stars can also sometimes show a green flash just at the horizon before dropping all the way down - I will have to watch for this. I guess one other thing that helps is a lack of amtospheric haze - which along the Northern California coast is a challenge due to the fog bank. I will keep my zoon lens handy and be ready next time! I shot the sun all the way down into the clouds and have a couple of just the last sliver of sun - I will review and post if it shows anything interesting.
