Very different picture. I was wondering where the best light came from for this picture; "Moon Light" or "Earth Light"
Earth is known to reflect light from the sun on the moon, too.
A waxing gibbous moon appears high in the east at sunset. It’s more than half-lighted, but less than full. (click here for "Understanding the Waxing Gibbous.")
