That's why I love to watch the moon when it's not at full moon. It looks much more amazing, when only part of it is lighted and gives you a feeling of the "earth-moon-sun" constellation (and you complement/complete the rest in your imagination).
The earth looks much more amazing of course, it would be great when we had such a view in our sky every night.
