Thanks for your comment. :-)
In this picture, everything is used symbolically and doesn't intend to be
realistic. The sun at the horizon represents the first rising sun of the year,
it's called HatsuHi No De in Japan and a strong symbol of the New Year. The
whole scene must be seen rather as a little toy lighten by an artificial light.
BTW, I thought about placing a small moon on the up-left side of the Earth, for
symmetry, but gave up the idea later.
