The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below.

Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
04:23 Fri, 28 Aug		Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-southwest.	240°	8.8°
05:30 Fri, 28 Aug		Maximum in 51°37'17.9"N, 38°08'24.8"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 51°37'17.9"N, 38°08'24.8"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 51°37'17.9"N, 38°08'24.8"E because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to West-southwest for the best view of the eclipse.	253°	0.2°
05:33 Fri, 28 Aug		Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to West-southwest for the best view of the eclipse.	254°	-0.1°
05:34 Fri, 28 Aug	Setting	Moonset Setting, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase makes the Moon so dim before it sets, that it might disappear from view some time before it sets.	254°	-0.2°
07:12 Fri, 28 Aug	Not directly visible	Maximum Eclipse Below horizon	272°	-15.1°
08:51 Fri, 28 Aug	Not directly visible	Partial Eclipse ends Below horizon	293°	-29.2°
10:01 Fri, 28 Aug	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon	310°	-37.8°

The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.
