This week's picture is one of Orion, a constellation easily seen in the winter sky. The picture was taken in Ireland, and contains pictures of bare trees and a lake. The star Betelgeuse is unusually yellow, and is located above his shoulder. The opposing star, Rigel, is near his foot and is extremely blue. The sword hangs with a three star cluster from his belt.The pink fuzzy blotch near the sword indicates the Orion Nebula.
