Here's an overlay of the APOD with my Starry Night view of the region. I didn't realize how big the field of view was until I started wondering what M4 was doing in the picture! The red horizontal lines are one degree apart. The white angular line is the boundary between Ophiucus and Scorpio.
BTW, this region of the sky is "in the sun" right now, and for the rest of the winter season.
