Framed Moon Art

Of course, the moon does not light up the night of its own accord. The light from the moon that we see is simply the light reflected from our sun. This phenomenon creates the many phases of the moon and of course the lunar eclipses that spark fascination so much that it has inspired much framed moon lunar eclipse artwork including John Butler’s ‘Lunar Eclipse’ series and Vanna Lamb’s ‘Lunar Eclipse’ series.

While abstract and painted art are all wonderful interpretations, the moon itself is a thing of beauty. Pale white with smoke colored craters and a soft glow. So to really capture this beauty can only be done in framed moon photography. Sandro De Carvalho has captured the moon in all its shapes and silhouettes in the ‘Moon Light’ series. But for close ups you cannot go past photos taken from the Apollo missions.
