A superb printing of the iconic first color photograph of the first Earthrise ever witnessed by human beings.
Anders took this historic photograph of Earth (240,000 statute miles away) rising over the lunar horizon with a Hasselblad 500EL equipped with a 250mm telephoto lens and colour magazine 14/D looking west across the western shore of Pasteur Crater on the lunar farside.
'There was nothing in the plan for an earthrise photo. Indeed, we didn’t even see an actual earthrise until, on our third orbit, we changed the spacecraft’s orientation to heads up and looking forward. As we came round the back side of the moon, where I had been taking pictures of craters near our orbital track, I looked up and saw the startlingly beautiful sight of our home planet "rising" up above the stark and battered lunar horizon. It was the only color against the deep blackness of space. In short, it was beautiful, and clearly delicate'. - William Anders
