Taken at f9 and 1/250th of a second exposure

I’m pretty happy with this, hopefully I’ll be able to get a higher res one in the future.

    I managed to get a similar shot with my phone. Yours has a ton more detail though. Seeing Jupiter right next to the moon was nuts. It’s not visible in this photo though.

      What phone was this taken with? Because some phones have a “moon mode” where they replace the actual moon with an image that’s far better than what the actual camera sensor of the phone would be able to capture.

        A big part is exposure, you need to really crank down the exposure so the Moon isn’t just an overexposed white circle. Having a phone with optical zoom is also important to get a decent resolution image.

      That’s pretty good for a phone picture, mine phone doesn’t take anything close to that for the moon

      Unfortunately I didn’t see Jupiter tonight but that was probably due to my poor timing (as per usual) lol

    My second astrophotography session, currently using free things taken with my phone through 7x50 binoculars

    Jupiter with io just about visible

    The best of my moon shots no filter so pretty blown out

      Working around the blow out is a bit tough for sure

      And that’s a nice shot of Jupiter, I’ve been meaning to try for some of the planets but I never seem to be able to find them lol
