Hey all! I have been working on doing moon shots with my iPhone 18 Pro. This thing is so cool and has a really great camera. Let me know what you think.

The secret lies in the atmosphere! When the moon rises low near the horizon, its light has to travel through a much thicker layer of the Earth's atmosphere, packed with dust and moisture. This acts as a natural diffuser or filter, softening its blinding glare and giving it that gorgeous warm, golden hue.
This reduced brightness bridges the extreme gap between the dark night and the moon's surface. As a result, smartphone cameras (like the iPhone) don't get blinded by overexposure, making it so much easier to capture crisp lunar details while balancing foreground elements like trees or buildings for a breathtaking shot! 📸🌙

I was at one of the Smithsonians at an exhibition of Jim Henson’s works that are not typically displayed, so it was important for me to get a good shot. There was a large, bright window backlighting both myself and the objects. I used a selfie stick to frame the shot as I wanted, but the results were terrible. Using Camera App with Raw.
