From beyond the moon's orbit, the most apparent features of the Earth are the vast areas of ocean and swirling cloud patterns. The boundaries between the continents and oceans are not as visible from that distance, and the polar ice caps and other terrestrial features would not be as noticeable as the oceans and clouds. There is also no guarantee that erupting volcanoes would be visible from such a distance.
