As rumored, here's the
awesome Mars Phoenix image. An image later in the descent as the spacecraft nears the surface. Heimdall crater is within twenty kilometers of the landing site but just in the background in the image (You can't see it from the landing site).

Via
Planetary Society Blog.
P.S. Also see the
image of Phoenix on the ground at
HiRISE blog. Heck,
see the full image to see the parachute and heat shield as well.
