This year has seen many an astronomical occurrence, from the Super Pink moon to the Super Worm moon. Last night [June 5], the Mother City was once again treated to a stunning show from the sky. The Strawberry Moon shone bright over the Cape.
Many stunning images were shot around the city, across the country, and world wide too. Take a look at the lovely lunar show:
