Here’s a picture I took of the Milky Way with my phone. My telescope rig is out of commission until I get my new (used) observatory up and running. I need to install the dome rotator, but I’m waiting on a part to arrive before I can finish.

This is all I’ve got for now. I took this last weekend with my Pixel phone in astrophotography mode.

If you want to see my older images, I have quite a few posted on Astrobin here: https://www.astrobin.com/users/BensAstroStuff/

I have a pixel 7 pro and never used this feature. I’m going to give it a shot tonight! Disappointed I didn’t try during peak meteor showers…

I managed to get out during a clearing in the thunderstorms! Got to see some real nice ones but wasn’t able to catch any on camera unfortunately.

Make sure you set your camera app to capture in raw as well.
