The early autumn evening sky stretches from Scorpius in the southwest to the northeastern corner of Virgo in the west.  The figure of Ophiuchus the Serpent Bearer is standing upright despite the constellation boundaries being tilted over to the right.  He is holding the serpent, represented by the constellation Serpens, the only one of the 88 that is divided into two sections: the one on the right is Serpens (Caput) and the section at upper left is Serpens (Cauda).  Unannotated image.
