The skies across the world have been illuminated tonight as a stunning celestial event graces the horizon – the blue supermoon.
This rare occurrence combines the magic of a blue moon, the second full moon in a calendar month, with a supermoon – when the moon is at its closest point to Earth.
Tonight, the moon appears larger and more vibrant. As Capetonians look up to witness this breathtaking phenomenon, amateur and professional photographers alike are capturing its beauty through their lenses.
Benjamin William Pearce caught this morning’s beautiful moon on camera. Tag us on social media in your pictures of tonight’s moon to be featured on Cape {town} Etc.
This event will not happen again until 2037.
