Bright Supernova in the Superwind Galaxy

Bright Supernova ASASSN-14lp (Type 1a) in the Superwind Galaxy NGC4666
in Virgo

Has anyone seen or photographed this supernova currently 13.4mag? It was supposed to be very bright (Mag 11.1) about a month ago I wish I had known about it a couple of days ago as I was photographing nearby galaxies in Virgo and Leo Markarians Chain and The Leo Triplet but now when I learn about the supernova the moon is too bright.
