First off, I have to say that this image is from Facebook user "astronomy". They get full credit and I get none :)
I had plans to take this picture myself, but it happened so early where I am located that I missed it. This is what user "astronomy" had to say:
"This evening (Oct. 18), the moon will undergo a partial eclipse, known as a "penumbral" lunar eclipse."
Basically the Earth blocked a super small part of the light coming from the Sun, heading towards the moon, and we (Earth) got in the way.
