The image where the moon acts as a sun visor for objects to the left and right of the Sun is a beautiful achievement as we are restricted to the distance from observer to horizon as a lesser sun visor where we see objects to the left of the Sun as an evening appearance and right of the Sun as a morning appearance.

There is no wrong way to look at the image however those who perceive the orbital position of the Earth in relation to so many things in that image will acquire the greatest satisfaction.
