As you all say, it's utterly bright, possibly brighter than I've ever noticed before, but that might be subjective.
And, it ain't moving (or at least not very fast) and was in the SW possibly WSW.
I've got some close up shots, but whatever you want to believe it is, it's so far out that capturing it without a telescope is ridiculous, and I DID use my optical tele lens.
Do you have decent Binoculars??

If so.. that will reveal quite a bit by itself.

even if a mate or something has a good pair, borrow them,
almost as good as a telescope!
