Camping trip Milky Way shot

Took my lightweight setup with me camping. The spot is on the south shore of Crete, Greece.

It's a Bortle 2 beach that's very hard to beat! I shot the Blue Horse Head nebula and the Andromeda Galaxy with a vintage Jupiter 135mm f3.5 lens, results here soon.

My tent is on the right, my gear on the left and a little flower got in the way that I hadn't noticed.

Single 30sec shot with an iPhone 13 Pro. Adjusted colors in iOS Lightroom.

Thank you!

Yeah I didn't have a phone tripod with me so I kinda just propped the phone up against a rock in the grass and hoped for the best!
