Green Blob in the Sky

[Boring_Chris]

As a clueless enthusiast of all things spacey, I was photo'ing a red star just now when I happened over a little green blob that wasn't visible to the naked eye.

I cant for the life of me think what the green stuff is?

Anyone shed any light?

Good call, but Venus is way over the other side of Earth!

Sure they are stars as both appear as discs.
Pretty sure you have got Mars (red), and the greenish blob would be Neptune.

Again, sorry, Neptune is on the other side of Earth.

This was East, just to the left of the Moon.

I think in the Leo constellation?
