Supermoon Beyond the Temple of Poseidon

Yesterday's supermoon, larger and brighter as it's closer to #Earth, rose by Greece's Temple of Poseidon. Also a blue moon—season's third of four full moons—it's the first in a series of four consecutive supermoons, with more to come in September, October, and November.
