May 2021 Supermoon Over Okinawa

 Cloudy Skies Didn't Stop the Moon from Showing


They just made it a bit challenging for photographers and moon viewers.

Here are 4 photos depicting this month's Full Moon, an eclipse, and the Supermoon setting.




It was 8:39 PM on May 26th when this eclipse photo was taken.





It would be 9:59 PM before an almost cloudless image of the moon could be captured.






At 4:56 AM on May 27th the moon shined brightly setting over Kin Bay.





At 5:29 AM a parting shot was taken of the moon before it disappeared again.
