At 3:35am BST, the moon, known today as the perigean full moon, will only be 356,907km (221,772 miles) away from Earth. However as I will probably be fast asleep at this time, here is a shot I took a few hours ago, about an hour after it had risen.
Looks more like a beach ball in this shot! Do hope you got or get to see the super moon too. Will disappear about 7am our time so you have a few hours left wherever you are. By the way this is a bonus square, the post I had prepared will follow later.
I didn’t get to see it but it looks amazing!

worth looking out tonight as whilst no longer a full moon, will still be pretty great

Solid overcast here, no luck. Which really is unfortunate, because at this time of year I can watch the moon rise while sprawled on my sofa — no need to even go outside.

oh now . .. we need winds to come and blow away that cloud for you. We saw it again last night and it was even more lovely. I though have to peer out of a window, so envy your sofa view

Nice shot of the pink moon, Becky. I got a couple of shots last night after fussing with my real camera. Saving the image for Sunday Stills.

You’ve got a proper Moon photo there, Becky.
I tried. I really tried. But Universal forces had other ideas: https://wp.me/pVkLb-4Qt

I left it too late to look and take a photo as it was just too bright. Best time to capture it is as it rises. I must see what time that is today as the sky is clear. It wasn’t yesterday.

Hope you do see it tonight, think it rose about 7:15pm yesterday so can’t be much later tonight

Later here. I had a look. I might pop along the lane and see if I can see it. Thought about the hill, but it will be too dark to get back down safely.
