The full moon of April 2024 put on a show for photographers, shining brightly in the spring night sky.

The Full Pink Moon rose on April 23, 2024, putting a damper on chances of catching any Lyrid meteors but providing a gorgeous target for cameras around the globe. The full moon enjoyed the sky mostly to itself, with a few visible planets rising just hours before it set on the morning of April 24.

If you missed the full moon in the sky last night, we’ve got you covered with this round-up of Full Pink Moon photos.

Lisa Shislowski of Dania Beach, Florida sent in this photo of the full moon above the Atlantic Ocean. 

“The clouds gave way as the Pink Full Moon rose above the ocean at about almost 8:00 p.m. I believe it was high tide, which made for a beautiful scene with the crashing waves,” Shislowski wrote.
