Hi Vasya

From what I can make out, this image is taken from Moscow looking south or south west at about 2200 hours. The bright object at lower left would be Jupiter, with Aldebaran below. Capella is the next bright oject to the north. Betelgeuse is over to the far left (south?).

Hmmmm .... then again, this could all be wrong!

I've never been to Moscow, or Russia, but I had a fiddle in Stellarium to get a similar sky view.

That light pollution is unfortunate!

Cheers
John
