Summary

Description
English: Southern Cross (constellation Crux) with clouds. Looking south-southeast from Cape Town, late evening in April.

To find Crux, draw a diagonal line from the bottom left corner of this photograph. From left to centre on this diagonal:

The 2 brightest stars are "the pointers" (alpha centauri and beta centauri). They "point" towards Crux, which is in the center of the picture.
