Throwback to the past winter here
The first time I've photographed aurora with shades into the violet. It was unusually strong and besides brightening somewhat following a long exposure photo, this is in fact "no filter". iPhone photograph!

This photo is so dynamic I thought it was a gif for a moment!
Very Nice!
Beautiful. I've never had a chance to shoot the aurora. The colors are amazing. I love how amazing the cameras in our phones are!
Thank you! Yes, in fact for quick snapshots I find it easier now to get good photos from a smartphone than my DSLR thanks to night mode. Of course, a DSLR will still have more potential but then you need to fiddle with settings in the dark and bring a tripod. Smartphones do so much internally to help, like reducing effects from camera shake.
Yes! I use my phone for pretty much all snapshot/grab shot photos I take.
What’s wild to me is how camera companies like Nikon, Canon, etc, have mostly not touched computational photography at all in their dslr/mirrorless cameras. It’s a HUGE missed opportunity and would do wonders for photographers.
It’s no wonder smartphones are eating their lunch.
