Orion Over and Under Tibet
This image shows the constellation Orion reflected in a peaceful lake in Tibet. The three belt stars of Orion appear almost vertically aligned, both above and below the Himalayan Mountains. The Orion Nebula, a complex region of star formation, is visible to the right of the belt stars. This view captures the deep sky and its reflection in a serene landscape.
