The moon made its closest approach to Earth on Saturday, March 19, 2011. It appeared much closer and larger to the naked eye than what we normally see. The last supermoon was eighteen years ago.
What follows are a few photographs of the event that I collected from Flickr. Click on the photograph to see other work by the photographer.
