A Winter Night of Alps

Constellation Orion, the Hunter, and Sirius, the brightest star of the night sky, shine over Fischbacher Alpen, near Alpine village of Krieglach in Austria. The three brightest stars in this view (Sirius, Rigel at Orion’s foot, and Betelgeuse at Orion’s shoulder) form a large prominent asterism known as the Winter Triangle.
