PHOTOS: Supermoon lights up B.C. skies

People across British Columbia stared up at a supermoon on Monday as the full moon – closest to the Earth in nearly 70 years – brightened up the night sky.

Although there were plenty of clouds across Metro Vancouver, there were a few chances for people to shoot Instagram-worthy photos of the supermoon. Other parts of B.C. got a clear look at the supermoon, which is believed to be the closest full moon to Earth since 1948.

Here is a look at some supermoon photos from across Metro Vancouver and B.C.
