Nice very clear and lot of clarity in your picture. I noticed the same yesterday of the moon and Jupiter from my driveway. And couldn't help taking this attached picture using my iPhone 14 Promax.

Funny how we noticed the same thing. Mine overexposes the moon but shows Jupiter a bit better. Or is it Venus? I'm not an expert on this.

And you even caught some of the equatorial banding on Jupiter. Good job.

Very nice Moon image Ronnie.
Is this a single exposure, HDR, stacked layers?

Thanks, Venkatesh. I think the iPhone alliows manual exposure in Pro mode. If interested, you can reduce the exposure so that the moon is less bright.

It is Jupiter. The only way to get a bright object like the moon and a dim object like Jupiter exposed properly in the same shot is to take separate pictures and combine them in Photoshop. Mine is a single photo initially (under)exposed to bring out lunar surface details. But later, I masked out the moon in PSE and increased the exposure and removed shadows from the rest of the picture.

I just discovered something interesting. On two of my pictures that are grossly overexposed, I can see two of Jupiter's moons. It's consistent. I captioned this for myself and changed the color balance slightly.

Yes, I have shot Jupiter separately and seen the moons. However, I do not know how to get surface details of Jupiter with a regular camera and telephoto lens.
