South Wales Argus Camera Club photographs of last night's supermoon

April's supermoon is the third of the year, following the worm moon in March. A supermoon happens when the moon reaches the closest point to Earth in its 27-day orbit and it happens to be full.

The phenomenon will be visible tonight - but that's your last chance to get a good view of it, so don't miss it. If you miss it, another supermoon is occurring on Thursday, May 7, when the Moon won't be as close, but still at a distance of 224,429 miles offers the third closest approach of the year. May's supermoon is known as the Strawberry Moon, Super Flower Moon, or Milk Moon.

We had a great response, and here are the fantastic images you sent in:
