The Supermoon Over Duxbury

Our Duxbury Beach photographer, Sara, takes a few cracks at the Supermoon.

Duxbury Beach is a great place to take photos, and the effect is only heightened with a Supermoon.

As you know, a Supermoon is a full (or new) moon happening while the moon is at her closest point in the orbit to us. It appears 16% larger,and 30% brighter.


There is also a Micromoon, known as what I think is spelled apogee-szgyzy. That is when the moon is full at her greatest distance in the orbit from us,and it makes for a sucky pic.



Why we have Sara.... this is what happens when Steve shoots at the Supermoon. He lacks any appreciable skill sets.


... and this is what we get when he plays with the photo-edit software.
