Hi Julie,

That is a great image !

I’m using a Bintel 10” dob , Delos eye pieces and an iPhone 8 hand held

Have you seen my posts and images in January

Glad I’m not the only one doing Astro photos with an iPhone

When my HEQ5 mount and 6” OTA arrived in a week or 2, I’m going to learn how to polar align and use my Canon DSLR (I have a long road ahead )

The iPhone is really fun but limits you to lunar shots and the odd star like Sirius

Clear Skies

Thanks! I use my smartphones for quite a few things either hand held or using my Orion Steadypix EZ smartphone adapter attached to the eyepiece. I really like planetary imaging as well as the Moon. It's really amazing what can be photographed with a smartphone with a little processing.
