GAZETTE Camera Club members were up at ‘high moon’ to capture these stunning images.
A rare, pink supermoon lit up the sky overnight on Tuesday, making it look bigger and brighter than normal.
In April, the full moon is called a “pink moon” after the pink phlox flowers which bloom in springtime.
It is also known as a supermoon because the celestial event occurs when it is near its closest point to earth in its orbit.
These great pictures were taken at Dovercourt and Clacton.
