Sequence of the Crescent Moon Setting Revealing the Da Vinci Glow – Photo and Time Lapse
By Year: 2025 | Earthshines & Crescent Moons | Time Lapses Photography | Twilight Dawn & Dusk
This is my favorite time of the month, when a slightly Crescent Moon is shiningly revealing the Da Vinci Glow. Described and drawn for the first time by Leonardo Da Vinci about 500 years ago on his book Codex Leicester, Leonardo da Vinci explained the phenomenon known as Earthshine in the early 16th century, when he realised 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. The time lapse sequence was captured during twilight in a nice landscape from Àger, Catalogina, 2h driving towards north of Barcelona.
PT: Esta é a minha altura favorita do mês, quando uma Lua ligeiramente crescente revela o “Brilho de Da Vinci”. Descrito e desenhado pela primeira vez por Leonardo Da Vinci há cerca de 500 anos no seu livro Codex Leicester, o fenómeno conhecido como Earthshine foi explicado por ele no início do século XVI, quando percebeu que tanto a Terra como a Lua refletem a luz solar em simultâneo. A luz é refletida da Terra para a Lua e de volta para a Terra, formando o “Da Vinci Glow” como ficou conhecido. A sequência em time-lapse foi captada durante o crepúsculo numa paisagem de Àger, Catalogina, 2 horas de carro a norte de Barcelona.
