I find this problem when generating a PDF and viewing it in Linux,but the
on-screen version seems to work fine. One reason for your darkness might be
the actual bluemarble scene. There is one for every month <
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/BlueMarble/>, so you can have a
look at the different month and pick u which is better for your
area/application. Another thing you can do is to modify the bluemarble that
comes with matplotlib using the gimp, as it is just an image file you can
edit easily. Starts looking like data cooking, tho' ;-)
