Caption: Moon Over Forest, West Dolores River, Colorado, 1972:
The image poses a lunar phase question where there is NOT enough information to solve for the unknowns. You know the lunar phase, but NEITHER time of day NOR the location in the sky. With 2 unknown variables, you CANNOT solve for either of them.
