Stars becoming visible in the evening sky as seen from the mountains of southern New Mexico.
Brilliant Venus is in the lower left quadrant and is the brightest object in the frame.
Along the left edge is the star Spica in the constellation Virgo.
Along the upper edge, left of center is the star Arcturus, and the Big Dipper is in the upper right quadrant.
The lights of the village of La Luz are sprinkled along the floor of the Tularosa basin.

Mars, rather faint, low in the evening sky of southern New Mexico.
The second graphic is a finder chart from planetarium software.
Because of the bright star mnemonics I learned long ago, I imagine a big arch in this part of the sky.
Starting with the Big Dipper, follow the curve of the handle...it's the "arc to Arcturus". Then keep on spikin' to Spica (which is a bit left and higher than orange-red Mars).

The Big Dipper standing out from a sea of stars, photographed over Bandelier National Monument. Quiet skies, ancient light.

#BigDipper must be the most famous #constellation ✨️ I choose to represent it entirely. It's made of #LedLights, a secondhand wooden #frame and pressed elder flowers and solanum 🌿

An #Asterism is a recognizable pattern of stars in the night sky, distinct from official constellations.
It can be part of a constellation, like the #BigDipper within Ursa Major, or span across multiple constellations, such as the #SummerTriangle.
