If you stepped outside Saturday night, there's no reason why you could have missed the Super Moon. The moon was about 221,802 miles from Earth; 15,300 miles closer than average, according to the Associated Press.

I snapped a few photos while walking from the St. Petersburg Pier to Vinoy Park on Saturday night. But, our photos from Tony Althaus win "best shot" so far! Take a look!
