The Great Schnauzer.
I don't think that Canis Major gets the attention it deserves, save for Sirius. Perhaps because it sits low on the horizon from mid-Northern latitudes, where all the people who define the rules live. From my perspective it's a celestial masterpiece.
In this image Sirius is 64° above my horizon.
I like the way thin clouds diffuse star light ?
