Across the world, people took photos of the supermoon over the weekend.

The supermoon was the year’s largest full moon and is a new or full moon that that takes place during a “lunar perigee” when the moon is closest to the Earth.

In different areas, the moon exhibited a reddish hue.

“Because of the haze, the rising moon exhibited a vivid reddish orange color, similar to that of a deep total lunar eclipse,” photographer Edwin Aguirre told Space.com
