Could you describe what we're seeing? Is this like looking out the rear window? (I don't know the capsule geometry)

I am not sure of the actual orientation for this view, but here’s a little from the company.

I’d take a guess and say it’s looking out just over the lip/edge of the heat shield.

Photos in here will give you some idea of the shape of capsule, etc.
