So I totally mixed up Venus and a streetlight in my last photo

I mean, I was so proud of my new telescope shot until my buddy pointed out it was just a lamp down the road. Idk, maybe it's just me but I guess I need to learn the sky better before I post stuff. What's the silliest mistake you've made when taking astro pics?

Tbh, 'we all start somewhere' and every mix-up teaches you more about the sky.

Honestly thought needing perfect gear was the main thing for astro photos, but your post kinda changed my mind. I'm way less stressed about messing up now, we all start somewhere.
