#super moon
On Monday, the full moon came closer to the Earth than any other time since 1948. The phenomenon, known as a "supermoon," allowed the moon to appear 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter than usual. Photographers watched the sky all around Egypt in hopes of capturing the supermoon shining brightly in various locations. The supermoon as seen from Dahab, Egypt.
