Thanks guys, I’ll give it a go and see if I get better results

Hi! I’m a total noob and I’m a bit baffled, I have a celestron astromaster 114eq and whenever I try and use my iPhone to take photos of the moon there is a black spot that shows up in the middle of the image and when viewing (I usually use the 40mm eyepiece for the full moon). It’s focused but this spot is just visible, I know it’s probably something super simple and I’m just dumb. I usually just hold my phone upto the eyepiece (I’ve since ordered the celestron phone mount which amazon have managed to lose but that’s another story!) is that the issue? I’ve included a few photos to show what I mean. any help would be super appreciated!
