Looked exactly the same in long island city ny

Nice contrast with red and yellow empire state building

My dogs were a bit more focused while walking them at 10:30 last night

Moonshiners All--

It's almost 4AM where I am... I just went out to the balcony and looked
high 
into the air to find the moon like a comtrex capsule, half shiny white,
half 
matte mauve-red, like you could almost pull the halves apart and spill
out 
the little red balls of time-released pain-reliever....

How does it look from where all you all are out there on other
continents or 
incontinents?
