My Take on the Supermoon...

It has become apparent to me that the only way to really appreciate the supermoon was to have seen it as it rose above the horizon. It seems to that beyond that, it really just appeared as a regular moon.
I was visiting my parents in Portland last weekend and between there location and the clouds, I felt luck to even see it at all!! They live high on a mountain with lots of trees. It was not even possible to see the moon, on a clear night, until it is well in the sky. And then the clouds were moving by very fast. I checked a few time and could not even see the moon. I did happen to catch it in between cloud banks one time.
Not a great shot, but taken with my Sony a700 and Tamron 200-500mm lens on a Manfrotto tripod.
