Milky way shot from the phone

[nerwin]

I haven't taken any milky way photos this year, keep forgetting my Google Pixel 8 has astrophotography mode and so I gave it a try. Takes around 4 minutes to complete but what you get is a rather impressive photo from a phone. Even if I don't have a "real" camera anymore, I can see use my phone to capture good images when I feel like it.

Impressive shot from any device but especially so from a phone - nice!

Aliens? Shhhhhsh, we don't like the publicity.
Nice shot for an iPhone.

The quality may not be as good as a "real" camera with a bigger sensor but still impressive nonetheless.
