Earthshine

Earthshine, 2018.

Sunlight reflected from Earth illuminates the near side of the Moon the Sun cannot directly illuminate, 2018. During crescent moon, Earth blocks some sunlight that would at full moon completely illuminate the near side of the Moon and the Sun can only directly illuminate a part of this side of the Moon. Earth, however, also reflects some sunlight which then dimly illuminates the rest of the near side of the Moon, a phenomenon called earthshine.

For this photograph, a total of nine limited edition prints, all hand signed and numbered, are available as original photo prints under acrylic glass and as canvas prints. Additionally, one artist’s print has been printed.

Prints are available in the following sizes:

  • 16 x 12 in (40 x 30 cm)
  • 24 x 18 in (80 x 60 cm)
  • 48 x 36 in (120 x 90 cm)
