This is Jupiter and 4 of its moons at daytime :)
I find it fascinating to see Jupiter when it is daytime. A bit bizarre. And beautiful.

The Orion Nebula with a mobile-freaking-phone:
Pixel 4A + Celestron SLT 130, 10mm eyepiece.
My telescope was in auto-tracking mode and the exposure time was 4 minutes with the default Pixel Camera app.
I am astonished by this photo! You can see freaking color! COLOR! I only tuned down the gamma a bit but that's all of the editing I've done. Here is another unedited photo with a 20mm eyepiece:
I was soooo surprised to see this coming out of the phone :D - damn so fucking cool! 1.3 thousand light years away, stars forming.....so beautiful....so mindblowing!

A better shot of the Moon tonight ;)
Again this is taken with a phone, Pixel 4a, through a telescope.
I have a cool video too but I will share it another day.
None of these photos are edited. Straight out of the phone.

Here's a photo I just took with my telescope and my phone:
It is difficult to find the right spot for these kind of photos and tomorrow I'll try to do it better. And I will also record a video (I have one but I will share it when I will do it better) :)

A photo I took from a castle on the top of a mountain at night. Some stars and the town I live in :)

Hard to say if starlink, but yes probably satellites. And the bright one is Jupiter in the center
Every time I see a starry sky polluted like that, I assume it's the fault of *that* person.
Here's Jupiter with 4 Moons through Celestron 130 SLT and Pixel 4a taken 4 hours ago:
And closeup:
And another sample without the moons:

in reply to Tio • • •This is so cool! 😍
So you attach your phone to the eyepiece of your telescope, right? Also, could you see this nebula with your naked eyes or did you had to use the 4 minute exposure photography to see it clearly?

in reply to Rokosun • •Yes. I will do a video about these but basically yes I have a special adapter that connects my phone to the eyepiece of the telescope. Interestingly with the night mode for my phone (the default pixel camera app) you can see this nebula almost like you see it with your naked eye. But ofc not that sharp and clear. So you can see it some, but it is ofc colorless if you look directly at it. And it is nowhere near close to what you see in this photo I took. That's why I love to take these photos because they reveal the invisible.
Also the light pollution makes a massive difference when it comes to seeing such faint objects. This is an interesting article with illustrations about what you can see and how through different telescopes and conditions - deepskywatch.com/Articles/what…
