Thanks for posting these pictures, I ALWAYS click on APOD, though I don’t always comment :)

One of my favorite constellations can be seen now, side-lying on the eastern horizon in the early morning...the harbinger of winter; Orion.
Cheers!

Ah, the Summer Triangle. My first effort to find out the names of stars.

I spent a lot of time gazing up at them during summer evenings on vacation from high school.

Cloudy evenings were rare in the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California (it is in the desert), so the stars were always there for me to watch and dream about the wide world and my whole life ahead of me.
