EARTHSHINE

Limited Edition

When you look at a crescent moon shortly after sunset or before sunrise, you can sometimes see not only the bright crescent of the moon, but also the rest of the moon as a dark disk. That pale glow on the unlit part of a crescent moon is light reflected from Earth. It’s called earthshine. This photo was taken as a single exposure just after sunset on February 21, 2023.
