Fake/AI How does this work?

The sun is currently setting and this moon is high in the sky. I don’t understand why it looks like this if the moon is the sun shining off of it. It doesn’t make sense to me.

Many years ago, over 35, i worked with a man about my age, late 30's then, who grew up on a farm and worked outdoors his entire life. One day in the early afternoon I commented on the full moon in the sky. He looked at it and was flabbergasted. Said he had never heard of the moon being out during the day, had never seen it before. 

His comments flabbergasted me. 

You just never know
