In fact, this month's perigee is the closest of any perigee in 2012 (they vary by about 3 percent, because the moon's orbit is not perfectly circular). The result will be a 16 percent brighter-than-average full moonaccompanied by unusually high and low tides this weekend and into the new week.
I ventured out this evening to catch the sunset and the rise of this Supermoon from the Currimundi bridge overlooking Currimundi Lake...
These were my sights...
Magic hour over Currimundi Lake
(that time when the sun in below the horizon but it is not yet dark)
The Supermoon above the treeline
My 'long exposure' attempt - post processing blew out the moon,
but I liked the pretty flower shape :)

'Long exposure' when the camera shutter stays open an blurs movement -
great to capture moving lights like traffic.
Namaste...
