ohh that's great Idea Sasha, will go to dance for a few seconds now :) finally some viral content !
Thank you, also great to hear that you enjoy my videos.

When are you book going to be out ?

in reply to Dima

haha yes can't wait to see the little dance! 😆
It will be out this month, as soon as possible 😁


The Moon and Jupiter tonight:

The image is a composite - I took separate photos for each with the telescope and the phone. The original photo looks something like this through the binoculars:

But you can zoom into the first photo and you can even see Jupiter's moons :)

This photo looks fake, but it is not, and it is taken with a mobile phone. Plus I did no editing:


These are the islands where I live, and the wonderful night sky. You can see the Pleiades in the left top side, and that bright one top center is Jupiter:

4 minutes exposure with Pixel 4A.

A perspective photo that I really like. The moon and the bus. This is straight out of my phone - no telescope or binoculars, and no editing.

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.

Want to see a cool video of the moon from tonight and raw reactions to this beautiful beast? :) Here https://videos.trom.tf/w/iArtM7RGsCaXVSNEHBF8KS

And here are some photos:

Raw video of the Moon through Celestron SLT 130 and Pixel 4A


This is the raw video we took through my phone. And our genuine reactions. We were mesmerized by how crisp the Moon was. And this was not the best night to see it since it was a lot of humidity in the air. Enjoy!






Ok here's one more with the binoculars :D because I love these. I was standing here taking this photo with my Pixel 4a phone:


Then I added the binoculars to my phone and pointed here:

And I got this:


True, I enhanced the colors, contrast, etc., but with GThumb in less than a minute. Nothing crazy.

Here are more:




Mind you, this is a phone that was around 350$ new in 2020 that was given to me for free. Plus binoculars that we literally found somewhere. :) Nothing pro, yet the photos look super cool.

I think I've had some cheap toy binoculars when I was a kid, they looked like that but with much less zoom probably 😄
in reply to Rokosun

Yah they are not toy but feel like :D - it is super cool to use them with my phone because it gives you a cool perspective :P

in reply to Tio

Is that two starlink satellites dead center? Nice shot even if it is.
in reply to Mike J👹🐀 🤘🏻

Hard to say if starlink, but yes probably satellites. And the bright one is Jupiter in the center
in reply to Mike J👹🐀 🤘🏻

Every time I see a starry sky polluted like that, I assume it's the fault of *that* person.
in reply to Mike J👹🐀 🤘🏻

yah....I hate it too. Anyone who has any interest in the night sky hates "that" guy.


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:

Here's a photo I just took 2 hours ago of the moon with Pixel 4a and some cheap binoculars:

I love this photo because it also showcases what the stages of the Moon are. Just a part of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun from our perspective, but in fact the entire Moon is visible if you are to look closely.

So amazing!

I will try to take more such photos of the moon in perspective with buildings or other "objects". It looks so cool!

In our town there are ping-pong tables for anyone to use. We play sometimes I kinda like it :D. But yah, so cool they should do more of these in public spaces.

@BB

With all due respect, I would probably run for my life if I saw that, lol 😂

@BB


Awesome sunset. I am impressed how the Pixel 4a can capture the real colors. Phone that @Aaron gifted me :D. Even brand new it was 3 times cheaper than most high end phones when it was released.

I took this photo in very low light hand-holding my Pixel 4a. We were lucky to see these goats that late at the castle.

Not enhanced. Straight out of Pixel 4A. And that's how the sky looked like in reality.

Beautiful, my friend 🥰


I have updated my Photo gallery on my website https://www.tiotrom.com/photos/ if anyone is curious. These are the best photos I have taken so far.

For example this is not a fire, or exaggerated. It is how the clouds looked one day:

in reply to Tio

wow man really cool photos there 😃 BTW, is that a bear chilling on a rock I see? I have no idea how you took that picture 😄
in reply to Rokosun

thanks! well that bear is actually in a zoo-like enclosure where you can go with your car and see them. Not the best environment for wild animals....but I liked that photo....


Take the telescope phone mount and attach it to the binoculars, and then you can take some cool shots with your phone :). Mind you these are tiny binoculars that we got from someone, not some pro-ones.

Here's a photo that's quite nice on its own:

Now point your binocular setup here:

And you get this:



Cool :)
