(156,619 posts)4. Nope, no earthshine. It's tricky to get.
I see your username is Earth-shine. Do you take photos of the moon with earthshine?

(4,044 posts)6. My user id is the namesake of a song by Rush,
which mentions light from the earth reflecting off the moon.
According to its writer, the song earthshine is a metaphor about the spirit of humanity pushing outward.
I am an astronomy buff, but I don't take my own celestial pictures. I just take them from the internet.
