The full moon appeared bigger than normal and sometimes slightly orange as it lit skies around the globe.
It reached its full stage on Tuesday during a phenomenon known as a supermoon because of its proximity to Earth.
The moon also illuminated New York City’s Statue of Liberty and shone on the pillars of the ancient temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion south of Athens, Greece.
We look at some of the stunning images from Dunbar, Frankfurt and New York to Istanbul and Beijing
