November 14, 2016 - Lunar Imaging Session - SuperMoon (Perigee Full Moon)

The sky this evening is partly cloudy but I was able to image the SuperMoon which is actually the Perigee Full Moon , using Canon 500D DSLR with Canon EF 100-400mm f.4.5-5.6 IS L lens set at 400mm f/11 at 1/750sec exposure at ISO 400. Today's SuperMoon is the largest Moon size since 1948 with a close approach of only 356,509km! The next biggest SuperMoon will not be seen till November 25, 2034 with a close approach of 356,448kms.

I also compare this SuperMoon to an image of another Full Moon taken at apogee meaning the farthest distance to Earth. It is obvious there is some differences in size which is more or less about 14% larger in size for this November 14, 2016 Perigee Full Moon.
