The super moon has come and gone for 2012 but I wanted to share some of the cool photos I saw...

This NASA image shows last year's supermoon over the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C., on March 19, 2011.

I like the one behind Lincoln Memorial the best. The closest to the horizon, the bigger it looked and the more awesome it got, even though it was not as bright and had not reached the perigee or full moon (last night there was 1 minute difference between both, which was amazing, in such broad possibilities).

To tell you the truth, even though it was not a supermoon, I found that some full moons (regular ones), as long as it was close to the horizon, looked gorgeous because of the larger than usual size. And it happened quite a few times too.
