Moon Games

Explanation: This is not a screen from a video game. Nestled below the tree-line, the small mountain church does look like it might be hiding from Moon though. In the well-composed telephoto snapshot, taken on November 23, the church walls are partly reflecting light from terrestrial flood lights. Of course, the Moon is reflecting light from the Sun. At any given time the Sun illuminates fully half of the Moon’s surface, also known as the lunar dayside, but on that night only a sliver of its sunlit surface was visible. About three days after New Moon, the Moon was in a waxing crescent phase. The single exposure was captured shortly after sunset in skies near Danta di Cadore, northern Italy, planet Earth.

说明: 这不是电玩游戏的截图。这座隐藏在树线下的山间小教堂，看起来确实像是在躲避月光。这张构图精美的长焦照片拍摄于11月23日，教堂的墙壁部分反射着地面泛光灯的光芒。当然，月亮反射的是太阳光。任何时候，太阳都会照亮月球表面的一半，也就是月球的向阳面，但在那天晚上，只有一小部分被阳光照射的表面可见。该新月后大约三天，月亮处于上弦月阶段。这张照片是在日落后不久，在地球上的意大利北部丹塔迪卡多雷（Danta di Cadore）附近之天空所拍摄。
