Footage shows the rare super blood moon when it appeared over Saint Petersburg, Russia, in the early hours of Monday morning May 16.

The largest and brightest full moon of the year shone over buildings in the city during the full lunar eclipse when the earth was positioned directly between the sun and the moon.

The moon fell directly into the earth's shadow, causing it to turn a hazy shade of red.

May’s full moon, which is called ‘Flower’ according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac, reached its peak illumination on May 16, to become a 'super moon'. It also took on a reddish hue or a 'blood moon', giving it the name of a 'super flower blood moon'.
