Mars and Collegio

My mind decided to take a short break from studies and I went outside into the cool breezy night where I brought my Nikon along and took this shot just above the roof of the Collegio.

That's what Mars is from this view and beside it, to the right is the constellation Auriga. A little to the left is the star Betelgeuse which is part of the constellation Orion which is hidden from view as it heads downwards behind the building on the west.

Exams can do strange things to people. Me, I just take pictures of constellations! ;-)
