Ok, so this one is actually from way back in July 2005, but I like it nonetheless...
I went to Angkor Wat last week. I tried my new iPhone 11 Pro.
I was using my EOS R with Sigma 150-600C.
30 second exposure at f/6.5
Took three shots, changing the ISO to get more dynamic range on the nebula.
Then I aligned them in Photoshop and blended the three exposures together. You can still see some of that in the center of the nebula, as I haven't perfectly figured out how to do it.
Then I did some curve adjustments to get the blacks black and the other colors looking the way I liked.
Been watching a bunch of youtube from AstroBackyard

This channel is all about astrophotography. I'll take you with me as I shoot nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters with my camera and telescope in the backyar...

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions.
Patience, it takes time. I'm still trying to read and watch as much as I can...
Btw, yours looks better than what I've gotten just a few month ago!

Even though he's a lot more advanced than anything I'm doing, I can still pick out a few things here and there.AstroBackyard

Better than any astro I've ever done...
Mr. red-bellied woodpecker only seems to visit when the weather is bad.
Yes, sorry I forgot to mention that.
It's the iOptron SkyGuider Pro.

I've made it my mission to work on Astro in the winter when there isn't too much other stuff to do.
Suck being outside in the winter, but so far this year it's been pretty mild here.
And sorry @kenoh , I think I must not be getting all my notifications, as I totally missed your post yesterday...

The girls discovered a TV show (old but just found it) like the bake off but for pottery. Of course having watched the first episode, the toy potter wheel had to come out.

Harvest time, Finger Lakes, NY. Taken from my old front yard with an Olympus E4.
Interesting clouds here in Denver today from out at Rocky Mountain Arsenal.
