The biggest and brightest full Moon of 2024 so far has been visible in the sky the past couple of nights and photographers have been out capturing the rare Blue Supermoon also known as the Sturgeon Moon.
A photographer has put together a stunning sequence of pictures after he captured all four supermoons in 2023.
These photos only come around once in a blue Moon, literally. The rare sight of a "blue supermoon" attracted photographers from all across the world last night.
Supermoons have been plentiful recently, but this month's Sturgeon Moon is the final one of the year and photographers will have to wait 12 months for the next one.
The Perseid Meteor Shower will reach its peak tonight (August 12) but those looking to photograph this annual celestial event will have to contend with a very bright supermoon known as a Sturgeon Moon.
The supermoon lit up the skies this week, peaking on Wednesday when it appeared 30% bigger and brighter than usual.
Photographer Justin Anderson shot a trio of gorgeous celestial elements together. During the total lunar eclipse, he was able to capture the Blood Moon, aurora, and the Milky Way galaxy together in one stunning panorama.
A total lunar eclipse wowed viewers around the world this week and in one timelapse video, it can be seen dramatically cutting the light of the night sky to such a degree that the Milky Way suddenly bursts into view.
This morning I woke up early to photograph the descending supermoon on top of the famous St. Nicholas church in Amsterdam. But the supermoon was "just 96%" visible this morning as it is not completely full until tomorrow. Nevertheless, I love the slight shadow in the edge of the moon so I picked today as the day to shoot.
Destin Sandlin of SmarterEveryDay was out shooting the recent Super Blue Blood moon when something weird happened. As soon as the moon "touched" the tip of a model of the Saturn 5 rocket in Alabama, USA, a dark line appeared in his photos.
This past Monday, the world was treated to the largest "supermoon" since January 26, 1948. If you're wondering how the supermoon compared to an average appearance of the moon in the sky, check out photographer Philippe Moussette's comparison photos above.
Last night, talented photographer and MIT researcher Andrea Fanelli went out to capture the epic supermoon we're currently experiencing, only to arrive at his chosen spot too late for that standard 'moon over the skyline' shot. So he got creative... and captured something WAY better in our opinion.
The photo above is a perfect example of when preparation and luck meet, shake hands, and press down your shutter in unison. Captured by wildlife photographer Will Burrard-Lucas, the photo shows a lion cub in the foreground with last September's supermoon eclipse in the background.
This past weekend, the day before the supermoon lunar eclipse, photographer Mark Gee decided to take advantage of the extra large moon his own way. Gee recruited a bunch of local photographers from Wellington, New Zealand, and had them photograph the moon from a hill while Gee filmed the moonrise in the background.
What resulted was the 2-minute short film above, titled "Photographers Moonrise," which shows photographers being dwarfed by an enormous supermoon rising into the sky.
Most people use their smartphones as their go-to snapshot camera these days, and the impressive image quality of the latest models is great for recording everyday memories. The small sensor and lens do have their limitations, though, and quite a few people found that out last night when they pulled out their smartphones to photograph the supermoon lunar eclipse.
Renowned French astrophotographer Thierry Legault captured one of the most remarkable images of the supermoon lunar eclipse yesterday. He managed to shoot the world's first photo of the International Space Station passing in front of the moon during the eclipse.
People around the world were treated to a supermoon lunar eclipse last night and early this morning. It's a sight that won't appear again for another 18 years (the next one is in 2033). Photographers around the world brought their cameras out to give the sight their best shot, and the results are spectacular. Here's a rundown of some of the most beautiful photos and videos created.
So an image of mine (@lightbrekkie) appears to be doing the rounds lately on Instagram and you may have seen it.
Update: The video has been removed by FilmDubai who originally uploaded it, we'll get it back up as soon as/if it is republished.
Admittedly, this is not photography, but there are so many frames that would be worthy of pulling out of this short real-time 4K visual treat that we thought it was certainly worthy of sharing.
Were you able to capture photographs of the supermoon this past weekend? Photographer Alessandro Della Bella did. On Saturday, he set up his camera near a mountain in Switzerland and captured breathtaking photographs of the moon rising above a mountain peak in the horizon.
