Crescent Moon sunset over the prairie
Crescent moon with Earthshine at sunset. Earthshine is light that reflects off the clouds and seas near sunset or sunrise on Earth, hits the dark side of the Moon, which is an ashy gray like worn paving, and bounces back to the twilight side of Earth. I love to see the delicate details the Earthshine reveals, especially when combined with the blue of twilight and rosy colors of sunset!
