Why does my images always come out green? I'm assuming its because of the WB but it doesnt seem to change.

I’m sure they could be better but pleasantly surprised for first attempt. First image is raw and unedited result of one 30s exposure in night mode with an iPhone 14 x pro max on a tripod at bortle 2 site. Was taken earlier this morning. Viewing conditions were suffice but hazy. Second image is same image mindlessly tweaked for just a minute playing with the native iphone editing parameters. Got many more Milky Way shots but mostly they are all similar. I didn’t have a remote shutter release. I wonder how much if at all that may have impacted the results

Also got a satellite photobombing whirlpool galaxy on smart telescope which was fun to try too for first time though shot doesn’t belong here.

Shot on 07/09/25 (dd:mm:yy), the best photo of the moon shot by me

Some constellations that can be found here: Cygnus, Lyrа, Vulpecula, Sagitta, Draco and partly Hercules

No tengo telescopio 🔭 todavía y tome esta foto con el iPhone lo mejor que pude y como mejorarían la calidad de la fotografía en el celular ???, se ven 2 estrellas ( pero creo que son planetas ) y de ser así cuáles serían dichos planetas ?

I wished to capture them for a long time and last two nights were really exciting (especially the second one gave us exceptionally clear skies). Eagle, Omega, Trifid and Lagoon nebulae. M8 and M20 rise literally for 5-6 degrees above horizon.

Taken through 24mm lens on a 10” dobsonian with IPhone 16 pro, 3.4s exposure and edited in Snapseed.

Usually don't do photos, but about a month ago, I had really good seeing for where I live and tried my luck. I didn't have high hopes, but a few of the pictures turned out pretty well for single frame snapshots without a holder, although the telescope certainly did more for the quality than my phone's camera.

These two pictures didn't quite get the full illuminated area, but they're the sharpest and for some reason have way less false colour than the others (probably something with the phone).

Telescope: Vixen SD81S-II with Vixen SLV 9mm eyepiece, added a Baader 2.25x Barlow for the second picture.

Phone: Xiaomi Mi-9t, standard camera with 1/30s exposure and manual brightness adjustments, everything else on auto iirc.

The second image is unedited. The first image is some images like the second one stacked using Sequator, using the a moderate light pollution filter as well as star alignment. Then edited in Snapseed.

I had no dark frames and as I stacked only about 5 images, any further attempts to bring the galaxy out also results in horrendous amplification of noise and light pollution as well.

The next time I'm hoping to capture some dark frames as well if I can and take more distinct exposures.

My phone doesn't have RAW mode so unfortunately cannot take RAW images.

Im very colorblind. Did I get the sharpening right? Where does this stand for a Venus picture with this set up? Tips? I know Venus isnt about surface detail, just clouds.

This picture was taken from São Tomé City in Central Africa, during a blackout in a usually bortle 5 area, so probably less in this case.

Used a Redmi 15 pro, 5 sec exposure, iso 4000.

To the left is the Southern Cross. The Carina Nebula is visible in the center, as well as other Caldwell objects, like C91 and C85 to the right. Very happy with this shot!

I'm hoping to get 2 hours of integration time later.

I wasn't satisfied with the background noise and star bloat in my last post, so I decided to go back and re-process my 1-hour Lagoon Nebula stack.

Used Starnet to pull the stars out of the image, switched to Generalized Hyperbolic Stretch to pull out faint dust lanes and background neutralization. Merged the stars back in as a separate layer in GIMP to control their brightness independently.
