October supermoon 2025: Londoners snap photos of rare Harvest and Hunter’s moon
Londoners share what October rare Harvest and Hunter’s Moon looked like from the capital.
Last night a supermoon took over London's night sky with many city locals having captured the lunar spectacle on social media.
On Monday (October 6) Londoners got a chance to see the largest and brightest full moon of the year so far.
The first supermoon since November 2024, the moon lit up the city’s night sky with its amber glow.
Recognisable for its orange hue, the Hunter’s Moon often appears to be larger than other full moons as it is closer to the horizon.
However this October full moon was also considered the Harvest moon of the year because it rose closest to the autumn equinox.
Photos of the lunar spectacle have since been shared across social media and here’s some of our faves:

I was able to capture the #HarvestMoon tonight before the clouds covered it entirely.

The next two full moons will also be supermoons. So if you missed this one, you won’t have to wait too long to see the lunar spectacle again in November and December.
