Srange black object

by Andrea Russo

I saw this strange black object near the galaxy in front of what I suppose is a star, what can it be?

I answered in the other thread and in the comments. No need to post your question multiple times. 😄

The bright spiky object bottom left is a foreground star from our galaxy.The colours, spikes and weird blue centre are all optical artifacts
