>>4295932My scope is an orion 134mm and I use a pixel 6 pro in night mode. It takes 6 second exposures and since I dont have a tracking mount im guessing thats whats giving it star trails and artifacts. I dont know how to edit Ive only started a few weeks ago.
You should check for the beehive cluster its in cancer it should pass almost directly over. Its one of my favorite clusters since it appears big in a low power eyepiece unlike m3 and m5. Its been cloudy and the moon is out so I havent tried for any DSOs recently.
