Awesome effort. I'm hoping to try something similar when this week's nightshifts end. Hopefully clear skies for my time off 👌 did you have a phone mount on a telephone or just handheld?

It might sound stupid, but I put the phone in a shoe so it was easier to tilt and rested on the bin

That's brilliant. I put mine in a pint pot and put it on a 1min exp exposure for this shot of me and Orion.
