M42, the Great Orion Nebula. Imaged from a Schmidt -Cassegrain 8-inch telescope using a smartphone (w/ pro settings). Processed in Snapseed. I hope someday astro images taken from smartphones would be featured too.

The Conjunction between Mars and Comet E3 happened several hours ago under Philippine night skies (in the city) and was easily spotted under a 3-inch refractor telescope. This photo was taken using just a smartphone w/ PRO setting features. #Astrophotography#cometZTF#astronomy
At twilight a while ago, the western horizon cleared up.. just enough time for the triple conjunction to be viewed. In the composite image, the 3.8% Waxing Crescent Moon with the Earthshine. On the right, Venus is the brighter object at the top and Saturn is the one below.
AstroFlash News: Around twilight, one of the Galilean moons "transited" Jupiter (crossed in front of, as viewed from Earth). In the image, the shadow of Io is visible on the southern portion of the giant planet.
