Leo
The constellation Leo ("the Lion") is one of the more easily recognizable shaped constellations given its name with the tail as the bright star to the left and head and front legs represented by the backwards "question mark" shaped stars to the right. The bright "star" at the bottom is really an overexposed Jupiter. I like to think of this shot as "the lion leaping over the planet". |
