Just curious if anyone of lucky North Eastern residents of US could catch a picture of tonight's Lunar Penumbra?

Had a great view here in Germany, but sky was so clear, moon sooo bright, didn't even notice any difference.

Moon was a round, fat spotlight - no hint of any shade (close to Germany).
There's a picture in the Shoot the Moon thread.

On oct 18th, date of the eclipse, the Moon was also at maximum libration East (longitude: 5.27°), meaning the Eastern limb was tipped into view and one can see details otherwise hidden.

You were also lucky to have some shadows on the Eastern side, so check the full res version for "rare" sights.
