I'm absolutely thrilled to share my very first attempt at capturing the awe-inspiring beauty of the Milky Way. This has been a dream of mine for a long time, and I finally took the plunge. What makes this even more exciting is that I managed to capture this celestial spectacle using just my iPhone 15 Pro! 🤩

Here's the photo:
