The planet Mercury makes an appearance, too.
On the righthand image, captured with the same 200mm lens and almost from the same location on a pier over the beach, reveals the scene while looking to the opposite direction of the sky. This time we are facing to the west just two days after the new moon and 30 minutes after the sunset.
Earthshine is again visible, but the scene has slightly changed due to the moon's position relative to the sun. Earthshine was described and drawn for the first time by Leonardo da Vinci about 500 years ago in his Codex Leicester writings; he explained the phenomenon in the early 16th century, when he realized that both Earth and the moon reflect sunlight at the same time.
Light is reflected from the Earth to the moon, and back to the Earth, as Earthshine. Both images were taken in late 2022. The image at right shows a sequence of shots in time lapse mode, while the moon's Earthshine of last October was setting above the Bey Mountains and close to Mediterranean Sea.
