In a very rare occasion, we had a Supermoon with Christmas and it was amazing. I read that it does not happen except ever thre decades so I guess we were lucky.
This is the last supermoon in 2015.
I took those couple of photos in my house in Giza.
The sky looked amazing in those couple of nights and surprisingly I saw many stars, we are not used seeing in the heart of the city.
I kept trying to snap shots in the cold night for the stars, but I failed.
Nevertheless, I learned good couple things in stars photography from my bad photos.
We had a lucky year when it comes to celestial photography with bluemoon as well the not-so-red moon in addition to solar eclipse.
