I’m getting into amateur astrophotography and have already taken some photos, but I’d like tips on how to improve. My current setup includes a Celestron 6 SE, various Barlow and Plossl lenses, a UHC filter, and a phone mount with my Motorola Edge 2022. Eventually, I hope to upgrade to an actual camera but for now this is what I have. For reference, here’s what I consider my best photo so far.

You need to be more explicit in how you got that image in order to receive a meaningful answer. All I can say is that it is likely that you need to learn how to process astronomical imagery, specifically of deep sky objects (so no planets/Moon/Sun). There are some good books around and I suppose yT stuff, so do a google search and we'll take it from there.
