READ AGAIN: Super Snow Moon explained

We want to see your best shots of the celestial event - send in your efforts below.

And photographer Mary McIntyre managed to capture this incredibly detailed image too.
She said it was taken from Oxfordshire with a William Optics 70mm refractor, 2x Barlow and Canon 1100D on an EQ5 Pro mount on a permanent pier.
She added: "This Moon image is dedicated to my lovely friend Richard Bailey who loves the Moon and sadly passed away not long after I'd posted this on 19th February.
"RIP my lovely astronomy friend."
