Super Moon: November 2016

The elliptical orbit of the moon around the earth makes the distance between them anywhere between 222,000 miles to 252000 miles. When there is a Full Moon at the closest point, it is called a Super Moon. The Super Moon this month was on November 14th morning. The last time the Moon was this close was on 1948 and the next one will be on November 25th, 2034.  Took the following images from the backyard at around 5:30 AM on November 14th.
