<p>Night sky objects always interested me, nowadays Im trying to observe and photograph some of these objects. My phone is iPhone 6S, i used SkyGuide app to find positions, NightCap to photograph. Im sure brightest star is Mirach according to SkyGuide app. </p>

<p>It's photographed at 00:30 at my local time (Istanbul, London + 3), SkyGuide says Mirach's azimuth was 77° 11’ 28” .</p>

If this is really Mirach, then I would say the point-like object above and a little to the left of it is the star mu And (another designation: 37 And) in the same constellation of Andromeda. Then the next point-like object slightly further above and to the left from mu And would be the star nu And (35 And). And a barely visible fuzzy object above nu And would be the Andromeda galaxy (M31). Then in the left lower corner we see another star Nembus (51 And), and above it the star phi And (42 And). And at the same height with nu And farther to the right from it at the edge of the building there is the star pi And (29 And).
