'Snow Moon' rises over Milton Keynes to show dazzling supermoon

    As the 'supermoon' rose over Milton Keynes, we show you some amazing photos that captured the moon in its glory!

    The Snow Moon is known as such because it is the February 'supermoon'. 

    The Moon goes through 12 or 13 full phases each year and they all have unique names.

    The more popular names are said to originate in the time-keeping traditions of Native American tribes.

    Other names for the supermoons include Wolf Moon for January, Strawberry Moon for June, Hunter's Moon for October and Cold Moon for December. 

    Below are some of the shots taken by photographer Matt Goodrum out of his garden in Bletchley.
