Nikon CoolPix P900 camera on tripod only. No telescope attached.
Registack 6 to stack 7 still shots. PhotoScape was used to slightly adjust sharpness and contrast.
The photo shows the Moon as large as we can see it. High in a clear sky, just 6 hours after full moon and only 351.9 thousand km away, exhibiting an impressive topocentric diameter of 33' 57", indeed a fantastic supermoon!
