Kazuma Koga said he was at Sunset Park in Las Vegas, trying to get a shot of the supermoon, but the clouds were hampering his view. He drove out to his favorite plane-spotting area near the airport to get a better view of the supermoon as well as to capture the light trails of the planes coming in. "I took a chance with the long exposre and was able to get a clear image," he said.
