With all the excitement leading up to and surrounding last night’s Supermoon lunar eclipse, it was only a matter of time before the pictures began pouring in on social media. We took to Twitter to find the best compilation of photos from the city and suburbs, and the results were spectacular. Check them out below, and don’t be afraid to tweet any of your own our way @ChicagoGenie.

#SuperBloodMoon is covered by the clouds… At least the #Chicago skyline is quite the sight! pic.twitter.com/pGoftfAT5l
