Moon also looks so huge. Need Neil D. Tyson to spoil it for all of us.

Cameras suck at picking up contrast so that’s why the moon might appear so bright.
The moon is close ish to the horizon so it looks bigger because it has something to be compared to.
Ps I have no idea if this image is not a real picture but those are most likely explanations

Earthshine is nowhere near that bright against such a dark sky. I've taken pictures. That's not how contrast works.

Could have the contrast edited on a picture. Idk

It's a composite. Parts of different photos put together in one frame. It's neato but fake.
