Yep , same phenomenon here in Belgium with the super-moon .
It's past midnight here and I can see a very bright moon ,surrounded by a halo-ring .

I tried breaking out the camera last night but I got off work too late and wound up missing it. I'm kind of sad I missed the opportunity.

I was still on an afternoon shift unfortunately, I'll nab a shot this afternoon although it likely won't be quite what it was the past couple of days.

A moon is close by more often than you realize

Tried capturing at 400mm (canon 100-400) with my sony A7R2, heavily cropped.

I haven't tried shooting the moon in a while, but here was one of my better attempts. It was taken with:

Nikon D5100
Nikkor 70-300mm (non-VR, no autofocus, so I manually focused best I could)
f/8
1/400
ISO 200
Tripod

That makes a great screen saver. I had been using a pic of M51, but it was time for a change.....
