Super Moonset

I woke up early enough today to watch and photograph this morning's (super) moonset. Here's how it looked.

The photos were taken just over an hour after the Moon was 100% full, while the Moon was also at perigee - it's closest point in its orbit to Earth, making a so called super moon. I'm not a bit fan of that term, but this morning's moonset was indeed super.
