Super Moon – December 3, 2017

There is a real thin layer of clouds in the sky.  Photo taken just a few minutes ago, December 3, 2017.

Sony A7IIa
FE 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 G OSS
F5.6, 1/25 shutter, ISO 6400

The only supermoon of 2017 takes place Dececember 3. According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac, supermoons appear up to 14 percent larger, and up to 30 percent brighter, than regular full moons. The Full Cold Supermoon will be closest to Earth in the early morning hours of December 4. However, that’s not necessarily the best time to see it. National Geographic reported that the best time to view this bright beauty is right after sunset on December 3 when the Full Cold Moon rises.

  1. I’m glad you got to see it, and thanks for the photo. We had cloud cover, and I didn’t have my camera with me anyway. It truly was beautiful. And the night before, although it technically was not a full moon, it was huge and brilliant!

  2. I saw the moon last night (in our part of the world) and wondered if it was my imagination that the moon appeared bigger than usual! Good to know it wasn’t my mind playing tricks on me!
