Identifying some of the stars/constellations in this picture:

In the bottom left is The Pleiades star cluster, also known as the Seven Sisters, or the less catchy M45.

Directly above PaintedJaguar's head and Hammersmith the Hashscot, about two-thirds of the way up, are two bright stars in a horizontal line, which are part of Aries.

Above Benjw is a very large, faint, V-shaped arrangement of stars, pointing down at Benjw, which is Pisces.

The bright star in the very top-left is Algol, the "demon star", which periodically dims and rebrightens for a few hours once every (just under) 3 days.
