People all over the world were delighted by an astonishingly beautiful sight last night. As people scurried to grab a picture of the rare event, some Instagram users managed to capture the most creative renditions and the best Supermoon pictures.

Let me explain this rare phenomenon first, for the uninitiated who still do not know how truly rare last night’s lunar incident was. The Super Blue Blood Moon that we witnessed last night, was one of the rarest sights in astronomy as three events converged together to give us the Super Blue Blood Moon, and some of the best Supermoon pictures ever.

First off, the Supermoon means that the Earth’s lunar buddy was the closest it can be and this phenomenon, although not too rare, makes for an incredible sight. What’s rare is, it coinciding with the Blue Moon, which indicates that a full moon has appeared twice in less than 28 days, and lastly, the Blood Moon was because of the total lunar eclipse. Hence, the rarest of rare phenomenons occurred last night, deservedly breaking the internet.

While you and I were rushing helter and skelter for some low quality phone pictures to share with our friends and family, these Instagram photographers managed to capture some of the best Supermoon pictures we have ever seen.

@dikshitmundra of @streets.of.india shares his #ChaseTheSuperMoon moment. ・・・ Thanks, @tatamotorsgroup, for the inspiration to go out there and #ChaseTheSupermoon! The super blue blood moon is a rare occurence and is a once-in-a-lifetime event. The team got back from TEDx, and timing couldn't be more perfect. We didnt have the end shot in mind, so after 20 attempts, we were able to get the perfect shot. We hope you enjoyed this beautiful event with your friends and family❤? • • #_soi • • • • #beautifuldestinations #bloodmoon #supermoon2018 #supermoon #moon #rsa_night #night#itz_mumbai #amazing_shots #dslrofficial #bns_earth #fs_longexpo #astrophotography #bns_sky #indiapictures#mypixeldiary #photographers_of_india #visualambassadors #moodygrams#mymumbai #indiaclicks#visualsoflife #natureporn #nature_prefection #nightshooters

#supermoon2018 ?Gestern Nacht konnte man gleich zwei Spektakel auf einmal bewundern, die es so schon seit langer Zeit nicht gab. Den Supermond und den Blutmond. Habt ihr ihn gesehen? Ich dachte eigentlich, das ganze Spektakel fängt erst um Mitternacht an. Trotzdem bin ich zum Sonnenuntergang auf einen Aussichtspunkt bei uns in der Nachbarschaft hoch, um ein paar Zeitraffer zu schießen. Ich habe mich dann schon gewundert, warum so viele Menschen mit ihren Kameras dort sind und warum plötzlich auch zwei unserer Mitbewohner auftauchten? Sie haben mir dann erklärt, dass der Mond bald erscheinen wird und um Mitternacht dann die eigentliche Mondfinsternis und der Blutmond starten. Also haben wir gemeinsam gewartet und gehofft, dass man trotz dicker Wolkendecke etwas erkennt. Und siehe da, wir hatten Glück✨? Ist zwar nicht das beste Bild geworden, aber egal ich hab ihn vor die Linse bekommen☺️ Bis Mitternacht habe ich es aber dann nichtmehr ausgehalten.. Es war trotzdem wunderschön anzuschauen?Habt ihr ihn gestern Abend gesehen?#supermoon #bloodmoon #blutmond #blutmond2018 #supermond #hamilton #aoteaora #nightsky #nightphotography #photography #moon #mond #onceinalifetime #canon #neuseeland #waikato #tillslookout #waikatophotography #amazing
