It's a "Lens Flare" artifact. It's not really there, it's made by your camera lens. Lens Flare

The bright dot left of the moon on the second picture should be Mars. Too bad we can't insert pictures in comments.

Seconded, the moon passed very close to a couple of planets last week. Mars, Jupiter, and Venus, iirc.

I feel like maybe it’s a freak accident that you caught the lens flare right over top of Mars and it made the normal capture of Mars right after way more sus, just cause you just saw this thing shrouded in green

Makes complete sense about the lens flare. Thanks!

We had a look on a stargazing app and according to it it is Mars but I did not know that Mars would be visible on my phone's camera.

Thank you for the confirmation. Super Stoked that I captured another planet even though its shite quality. Lol

Lens flair, but it's a sweet pic all the same especially from a phone.

Isn't there a Jupiter/Moon conjunction happening?

Need to know what time it was or which direction you were facing.
