It always bothered me that Betelgeuse was not considered when it was decided to make an asterism out of the bright winter stars. So I give you my "Winter Polyhedron", with Betelgeuse as one of the vertices. I like three dimensional shapes. Because the sky is not two dimensional!
The object at the upper right is my Wi-Fi antenna; my only link to the civilized world (thankfully). Betelgeuse was at the Zenith when I captured this image.
