Atlanta

Moongazers the world over were in awe of Saturday's shining lunar showing, a super perigree moon that happens only once every 18 years or so. Lucky for us, they took pictures.

A photographer caught this image of a shimmering orange supermoon just as it crested the tree line behind the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Hindu temple in Lillburn, Ga., outside Atlanta. An app on the photographer's iPad showed exactly where and when the moon would rise over the structure.
