Yep, you can see Orion's belt, Orion's sword, and Betelgeuse towards the top.

That is Orion's sword. The Orion Nebula is in the sword, one of the grandest things to look at with a telescope in the entire sky.

Those three bright ones in a row, that's Orion's belt. The big red one up and left, that's Beetlejuice, his right shoulder.

And those bright clump of stars under neath the belt?

That's Orion's p****

Idk why, but I’ve always seen the belt and the stars below it (in this picture) as a teddy bear, where the belt is the head/ears.

Am I the only one?

And besides that i now see catfaces all over the space constellations..
