TALENTED amateur photographers captured stunning images of the Super Moon as the rare event unfolded on Tuesday.
The event, known as the lunar spectacle, allows the moon to appear about seven per cent bigger and 15 per cent brighter than a normal full moon.
It appears when the moon is at its closest point to Earth and therefore at its brightest.

She added: “There were people parked up in cars by both beaches, even late into the evening.
