Full September Supermoon Rising.
The Full September Supermoon was first glimpsed appearing through haze above the local Cecil Kop horizon at 6.27 pm on the 29th. As it continued to rise it changed colour from magenta to deep red, orange and yellow as it approached and then disappeared into a layer of low cloud half an hour later.
