Just right of center top and crossing the Milky Way dust lanes.

It is a very good pic, BTW.

Funny. Cannot place the sky coordinates. Bright light at the right could be a planet. Venus? Or Canes Major and Sirius? Cannot make out any other constellations here.

More info needed.

We are very, very, very
Very very, very very small..
And what we do matters much to us;
But in the grand scheme
Not one bit at all.
