Sunday night, sky-gazers in the D.C. region got a phenomenal view of the moon, which was about as close to the earth it could possibly get — and will not be this close again until Nov. 25, 2034. Did you get an awesome shot of the supermoon? Tweet your pics @WTOP, email them to talkback@wtop.com or send them through the WTOP app.
