Stargazers across the UK have observed a blood red "supermoon" in the skies above Britain for the first time in 30 years.
The eerie light created from a lunar eclipse with the moon near to its closest point to the Earth delighted amateur astronomers and photographers, while filling others with dread.
Some religious groups and believers in astrology were convinced it is a sign that the End of Days is approaching.
The spectacle began to unfold from 1.10am in the UK, with the "total" phase - when the moon is completely in shadow - lasting from 3.11am to 4.24am.
