Why do some planets seem to give out light?

Those who have been into outer space have sent back/brought pack pictures of the Earth from space and from the Moon. We can clearly see the waters of the oceans and the clouds..... when the Sun is shining on them. The same goes for the Moon - we can see its features when the Sun is shining on it. At times when the Moon is at a certain angle we can see it all, but as it moves through its orbit we see less of it, because what we are actually seeing is the bit the sun doesn't shine on. So now, we've got Earth visible from space when the sun shines on it, and the Moon visible from here when the sun shines of it.... are you seeing a constant in here? The sun is what makes the Moon "shine" and it is what makes Earth's major features clearly visible. If you were to get further away from the Earth, the Sun's light would make us appear to 'shine' also. The "shine" of the planets is due to the fact that we are seeing them against the very dark background of space, and we cannot distinguish features, we just see the brightness of their faces as illuminated by the Sun.
