Otherwise known as the "Big Dipper". 

This was from a shot I took the other night while playing around, taking pictures of the moon and clouds. The image is rotated and slightly enhanced to reveal the constellation a little better. But it really is the big dipper. With longer exposure times the clouds tend to smear a little as they continue to move while the picture is taken. Much longer exposure times can even cause the stars to appear to streak from the rotation of the earth.
