Photo taken on August 10, 2014 shows the "supermoon" observed at Shuangta Temple in Taiyuan city of north China's Shanxi province. The "supermoon," technically known as "perigee moon," appears when the moon is in its closest to Earth in its orbit, making it appear much larger and brighter than usual.
