You say "white" as if there's only one color white, which isn't the case when you're talking about a range of lighting temperatures. The moon also has a unique light profile that it reflects. It's not the definition of white. Either way, if you're advocating for something resembling 6500k daylight white lighting at night, there is nothing at all natural about that. The moon casts a very dim light, even at its brightest.
- Zamicol 3y agoI would advocate for 4000k.
- azepoi 3y ago4000K is too high imo. In France the maximum is 3000K for example. For some cases (natural parks, building illumination etc) the limit can be lower 2700K or 2400K. https://www.darksky.org/france-light-pollution-law-2018/ https://www.darksky.org/france-light-pollution-law-2018/
- Zamicol 3y agoThe moon has a temperature, and it is 4000k.
